Baumgartner Needle Holder – 140mm (5-1/2″) with TC Serrated Jaws

Baumgartner Needle Holder: Tungsten Carbide Precision for Dense SuturingThe Baumgartner Needle Holder is the gold standard for surgeons requiring a reliable, heavy-duty grip on large needles. At 140mm (5-1/2″) in length, it offers unparalleled surgical precision by balancing a compact design with the structural strength needed for dense tissue closure. At Adas Instruments, our manufacturing process utilizes vacuum-hardened Tungsten Carbide inserts that are micro-bonded to the jaws, providing a cross-serrated surface that prevents needle rotation and slippage during critical maneuvers.Crafted from premium-grade German stainless steel and enhanced with TC inlays, each Baumgartner holder is finished with a dull-polished satin coat to eliminate glare under high-intensity surgical lighting. To maintain surgical safety and tool integrity, every unit is ultrasonically cleaned and passivated to provide high-level resistance against rust and chemical corrosion. By choosing these high-performance materials, we ensure maximum longevity of the serrated jaws, providing a consistent, firm grip even after hundreds of autoclave cycles.Care and MaintenanceTo preserve the life of the Tungsten Carbide inserts, the needle holder should be cleaned immediately after surgery to prevent the drying of biological debris. Use a neutral pH enzymatic detergent and ensure the instrument is in the open position during sterilization. To guarantee its safe arrival at your facility, each instrument is supplied in a protective pack. Adas Instruments offers reliable shipping through top-tier couriers like DHL and FedEx, supporting the global surgical community with high-precision instruments.Surgical ApplicationsWound Closure: Securing large needles for thick skin and fascia closure.Breast Reconstruction: Holding heavy sutures during mammaplasty procedures.Orthopedic Suture: Managing heavy needles in limb and trunk surgeries.General Plastic Surgery: Reliable needle management in various reconstructive tasks.People Also AskWhat is the difference between a Baumgartner and a Mayo-Hegar needle holder?
