Our Castroviejo needle holder gives you fine control for micro sutures from 5-0 to 10-0. Its round, textured handle rolls between your fingers, so you can turn the needle precisely.
You can choose straight or curved jaws, with tungsten carbide or standard, serrated or smooth. In addition, it comes in 14, 18, 20 and 23cm. A light spring and lock let you hold the needle without squeezing.

Cleaning and Sterilization
Clean the needle holder soon after each use. First, open the ratchet and soak it in a pH-neutral enzymatic cleaner. Then brush the jaws and box joint with a soft nylon brush. After that, rinse and dry it fully. Finally, autoclave it in the open position. Also, check the jaw inserts often, so worn tips get serviced early.
