The Backhaus Towel Clamp is a perforating surgical clamp used to secure towels or surgical drapes to the patient’s skin during procedures, ensuring a sterile and stable field. Designed with sharp, inward-curving needle tips, the jaws puncture both skin and drape to provide firm adherence without slippage
Equipped with ring handles and a ratchet locking mechanism, these clamps maintain position until released, ensuring secure fixation throughout surgery. Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel, they offer excellent corrosion resistance, strength, and reusability with full autoclavability.
In addition to securing drapes, Backhaus clamps are occasionally used for holding small bone fragments or securing auxiliary equipment through soft tissue manipulation in emergency or orthopedic settings
