11-1153-14 | Needle Nose Pliers
The 11-1153-14 Needle Nose Pliers measure 14 cm (5 1/2 inches) and are intended for
controlled handling of wires, pins, and small orthopedic hardware. Their elongated, tapered jaws
allow access into areas where a wider plier profile may be difficult to position. For orthopedic
teams maintaining a comprehensive collection of bone surgery instruments, this type of plier provides a dedicated option for hardware
manipulation rather than bone cutting or tissue retraction.
The product page specifies cross-serrated jaws. That feature is particularly relevant when
gripping smooth metallic surfaces because the serration pattern provides a defined contact
surface for holding wires, pins, and other small components.
Practical features include:
● 14 cm length: Gives the operator a useful balance between close control and working
reach.
● Tapered jaws: Allow access into confined surgical spaces and around small
components.
● Cross-serrated surfaces: Provide a gripping interface for wires, pins, and small
implants.
● Finger-ring handles: Give the clinician a defined grip for controlled manipulation.
● Orthopedic application: Suitable for wire and pin placement, removal, and adjustment
where the instrument’s design is appropriate.
The ability to manipulate small hardware without switching immediately to a larger instrument
can be valuable during fixation procedures. Needle nose pliers can also complement wire
cutters and other hardware instruments in a dedicated orthopedic tray.
The 11-1153-14 is therefore a focused tool for situations requiring controlled gripping and
manipulation of small orthopedic components. Add this needle nose plier to your surgical
inventory.
