The Needle Holder Derf TC is a specialized microsurgical instrument designed for handling the finest needles (e.g., 10-0, 11-0) in ophthalmic, plastic, and vascular surgery. “Derf” often refers to its fine, delicate tips, while “TC” stands for Tungsten Carbide—an ultra-hard material used for the jaw inserts. These inserts provide an exceptionally durable and non-slip grip on micro-needles without damaging them. Its lightweight, balanced design offers supreme control and tactile feedback, making it indispensable for procedures where precision suturing defines the surgical outcome.
