Mini-Ryder Needle Holders are used to grasp and guide the needle when suturing. These needle holders have unique design with narrow beaks, for use with 8-0, 9-0, 10-0 sutures. Mini-Ryder Needle Holders are available in 15cm & 18cm sizes. Surgical grade stainless steel and Tungsten Carbide beaks are used to manufacture these needle holders.
Why to use Tungsten Carbide Needle Holders?
The Tungsten Carbide needle holders provide a superior grip at the working end to hold the needles in place without twisting or slipping. Because of the superior grip provided by the Tungsten Carbide inserts, you only have to squeeze and lock to the first ratchet. It reduces cramping and hand fatigue for the long surgical procedures.
The Tungsten Carbide needle holders are available in wide variety of grips, lengths and angles. It makes it easy to select exact needle holder require for each surgical procedure. Please refer to our Catalogue for the correct needle holder to match the suture size that will be use. Normally the Castroviejo style needle holders are used for the smaller size sutures, typically 4-0 to 7-0. For those doctors who prefer to use Castroviejo design to use for larger sutures such as 3-0 to 4-0, we also offer Castroviejo Needle Holder for large needles.
The Tungsten Carbide needle holders typically last and maintain the grip 4-6 time longer than conventional stainless-steel tip needle holder.
