Wire Tightener
4-3/4″ (12.0 cm)?Wire Tightener is a specialized instrument ideally suited for handling of wire especially in closure of loops. It is necessary to have an instrument that is specially crafted for handling wire and twisting it without weakening the structure of the material. If particular care is not taken and the appropriate instrument is not applied wires can become weakened at the point where they are twisted making that application more prone to breakage and eventually causing damage and trauma to the patient.
