Surgical hooks, along with knives, spuds and dilators, are grouped here by shape rather than specialty, the way a hand instrument catalogue typically organises them. Peak Surgicals supplies patterns spanning ophthalmic lens manipulation, ENT dissection, vascular access and neurosurgical retraction, in German stainless steel, from $3.52 to $22.00. Each is CE marked and built under ISO 1348.
Ophthalmic Lens Hooks and Manipulators
Ophthalmic hooks position and rotate the lens nucleus, iris and extraocular muscles during cataract and strabismus surgery — fine, single-pointed instruments sized for millimetre-scale manipulation rather than tissue cutting. This is the largest single group in the catalogue.
The Sinskey Lens Manipulating Hook (PS-9839, $4.73) and its variants — Sinskey Micro Lens Hook (PS-9837, $11.00) and Sinskey II (PS-9838, $11.00) — rotate and reposition the lens during cataract procedures. Kuglen Iris Hook/Lens Manipulator (PS-9835-1, $6.60) doubles as an iris retractor and lens positioner. Von Graefe Strabismus Hooks (from $4.62, PS-9824), Jameson Muscle Hook (PS-9823, $11.00) and Green Strabismus Hook (PS-9829, $5.28) isolate extraocular muscles for strabismus correction. Gass Retinal Detachment Hook (PS-9832, $11.00), Fenzl Micro Lens Insertion Hook (PS-9834, $11.00) and Clayman Jaffe Lens Manipulating Hook (PS-9845, $11.00) cover retinal and lens-insertion work. For the fullest range including choppers and nucleus rotators, see ophthalmology hooks and manipulators.
ENT Knives, Hooks and Vascular Dilators
ENT sickle and canal knives form the second major group the Schuknecht Sickle Knife (PS-7620, $11.88), Paparella Sickle Knives (PS-7601A, $7.70) and Paparella Canal Knives (PS-7612, $6.05) carry angled blades for otologic dissection in the confined space of the middle ear. Tabb Myringoplasty Knives (from $11.00, PS-OT-01509) work tympanic membrane repair specifically, while House Incudostapedial Joint Knife (PS-7601, $16.50) and Guilford Wright Flap Knife (PS-7617, $11.00) handle ossicular and flap work. New's Tracheotomy Hook (PS-9806, $16.50) and Krayenbuehl Hooks (from $6.60, PS-9891) retract during airway and mastoid procedures.
For vascular access, Debakey (PS-4207, $9.35), Cooley Coronary (PS-OT-0136, $9.35) and Garrett Vascular Dilators (PS-42019, $11.00) progressively open vessel lumens before catheter or graft placement each pattern's taper matched to the vessel being accessed. Skin hooks Gillies (from $3.52, PS-9896), Kleinert Kutz (from $7.15, PS-9899) and Converse (from $3.74, PS-7563) retract wound edges in plastic and reconstructive closure, and neurosurgical dural hooks including the Adson Dural Hook (PS-9905, $11.00) and Frazier Dura Hook (PS-9889, $11.00) retract dura during cranial exposure.
Reprocessing, Tip Integrity and Certification
These fine-tipped instruments share a common vulnerability: a bent or blunted hook tip no longer engages tissue precisely, which matters more here than on heavier instruments because the working point is often the entire functional surface. Inspect tips for deformation after every cycle, and store single-pointed hooks and spuds with protectors in a mixed tray, since contact with heavier instruments is what bends them. Ultrasonic-clean before autoclaving so tissue residue does not collect at fine tips and knife edges.
Every instrument is forged from German stainless steel, Class I, reusable, CE marked and built under ISO 13485, the documentation a hospital supply team verifies before qualifying a vendor. Warranty is one year with return-and-replacement, MOQ is 1 piece, orders over $99 ship free in carton box packing, and OEM marking is available for distributors.
