Description
Thomson Walker needle holder
SMS Thomson Needle Holder is a ratchet finger ring instrument commonly used to hold curved needles during suturing. Its Serrated jaws ensure a firm grip, and the curved shaft places the tip at a deeper plane.
The Thomson Walker Needle Holder is a robust and highly reliable surgical instrument designed for precise needle control during deep tissue suturing, particularly in abdominal, urological, gynecological, and general surgical procedures. It features a sturdy, straight design that offers excellent grip strength, even when working in challenging or confined anatomical areas.
Expertly manufactured under the prestigious SMS brand by NAZMED SMS SDN BHD, the Thomson Walker Needle Holder is crafted using CE-certified German stainless steel, ensuring it meets the highest international standards for durability, safety, and sterilization compatibility. It is fully autoclavable, reusable, and resistant to corrosion, making it a long-term investment for any surgical toolkit.
This instrument is particularly recognized for its firm locking ratchet mechanism, which enables secure holding of the needle during suturing. The cross-serrated jaws ensure optimal needle stability, preventing slippage and enhancing control when passing through tough or thick tissue layers. The ergonomic finger ring handles provide comfort and grip, allowing the surgeon to suture for extended periods with minimal fatigue.
The Thomson Walker Needle Holder is suitable for medium to large suture sizes — generally ranging from 2-0 to 4-0 — and is ideal for use in open surgical procedures where strength and precision are equally important. It is also available with Tungsten Carbide (T.C) inserts for extended jaw life and superior grip force.
