The Flexible Alligator Forcep is a very useful tool in working in ears, noses and any other place where space is a premium. The flexibility allows for greater maneuverability and the jaws are spring-loaded. This unit is compatible with the Welch-Allyn Macroview, most rigid endoscope/otoscope systems and comes in a biopsy-jaw version as well. The stainless steel construction allows for autoclave sterilization and makes this unit more durable than other instruments.
