Kelly-Rankin Hemostat Straight 16cm, Extended Reach Half-Serrated Locking Forceps

Kelly-Rankin hemostat straight instruments complete the Kelly-Rankin set, providing the straight jaw configuration at the extended 6.25″ (16 cm) shank length for surgical sites that are deep but approached from a direct angle rather than at a curve. The most common application is in procedures where the surgical depth requires long instrument reach but the target site is in direct line-of-sight with the clinician’s working hand, as in anterior palatal flap procedures, labial frenectomy sites where deep tissue penetration is needed, and anterior extraction sites in patients with reduced mouth opening where the depth of the jaw limits anterior access even for a relatively anterior tooth.

The straight jaw alignment also makes this instrument useful as the primary hemostat when the curved version has already been deployed and a second instrument is needed at the same site with a slightly different approach angle. Because the straight and curved Rankin instruments are the same length, they can reach the same depth zone while offering complementary approach angles, giving the surgical team full positional coverage without switching to a different hemostat pattern.

Half-serrated jaw design, two-step ratchet locking mechanism, and ring handle construction match the standard Kelly pattern throughout. Medical-grade stainless steel, corrosion resistant, autoclavable at standard steam sterilization parameters.

Product Features

• Kelly-Rankin hemostat straight 6.25″ (16 cm) shank provides direct-access reach for deep surgical sites without obstructing the visual field
• Pairs with the Kelly-Rankin Curved to cover both approach angles at the same extended surgical depth
• Half-serrated jaw design and ratchet lock consistent with standard Kelly hemostat pattern
• Medical-grade stainless steel, corrosion resistant, fully autoclavable

Differentiates from Kelly-Rankin Curved: The straight version is for deep sites with a direct access angle. Pairs with the curved Rankin to cover both approach geometries at the same surgical depth.
