Halsted (or Halstead) Mosquito Forceps, also called mosquito hemostatic forceps or simply hemostats, are surgical instruments designed for clamping blood vessels or other small tissues to control bleeding during surgery or to provide a secure grip. They are so named because they resemble the slender legs of a mosquito. Life science researchers like these fine hemostats because of the secure grip and the ability to manipulate them in confined spaces. Mosquito Forceps have long, thin, and straight or curved jaws that taper to a fine tip. The jaws are serrated for a firm grasp with minimal tissue trauma. The handles of mosquito forceps have a ratchet lock to secure your grasp once it is engaged.

Halsted Mosquito Forceps are smaller than standard mosquito forceps. These are available in 12.5 cm (5") or 9 cm (3.5") lengths. Mosquito forceps give you a gentle yet secure grip on delicate tissues. These forceps are designed to be lightweight, minimizing hand fatigue. Due to their small size, Halsted Mosquito Forceps typically call for a fingertip grip technique, where the instrument is held between the fingertips rather than the traditional palm grip. This technique allows for increased sensitivity and control over the forceps' movements.

These fine surgical instruments  are manufactured from surgical grade stainless steel or premium German steel. They are autoclavable or suitable for chemical sterilization. To preserve the useable life of your surgical instruments, always clean them properly when you finish using them.
