Baby Mixter Hemostats, also known as mixter forceps or mixter clamps, are a surgical instrument popularized by their inventor, American neurologist Dr. William Mixter. They are used to clamp blood vessels, control bleeding, and manipulate tissues during surgery.

- 90° angle jaw
Their ratcheted, locking mechanism keeps the jaws closed securely once it is engaged, giving you a stable grip. The jaws of mixter hemostats are serrated, ensuring a firm grip without causing excessive tissue trauma. Our Baby Mixter Hemostats are smaller than full-sized Mixter hemostats, measuring 14 cm (5") long. The tips of the Baby Mixter Forceps have a 90º bend.
Mixter hemostats are widely used in general surgery, neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, and gynecological procedures. They are particularly useful for clamping small blood vessels, manipulating delicate tissues, and achieving hemostasis. Life science researchers like the small size of these Baby Mixter Hemostats for microdissection and small animal surgeries.
Our Baby Mixter Hemostats are made of surgical grade stainless steel or premium German stainless steel. Both metals are suitable for sterilization via chemical sterilants or autoclaving. To preserve the life of your surgical instruments, clean them thoroughly and promptly after each use.
