Eppendorf Biopsy Punch Forceps

The Eppendorf Biopsy Punch Forceps are specialized gynecological instruments designed for controlled tissue sampling during biopsy procedures. Their long working configuration provides access to the operative area, while the compact 3 × 8 mm blade forms the distal cutting component used to obtain a tissue specimen.

The current Peak Surgicals model is identified as SKU PS-EBPF-00189. The instrument features finger-ring handles, measures 200 mm to the shoulder, and is manufactured from German stainless steel. Peak Surgicals classifies this model as a reusable gynecology punch forceps.

3 × 8 mm Biopsy Blade

The current Peak Surgicals product specification identifies a 3 × 8 mm blade. This compact working-end measurement is an important specification for surgeons and procurement teams selecting an Eppendorf pattern biopsy punch forceps.

The blade should be inspected before use for alignment, visible damage, deformation, retained material, or deterioration that could interfere with normal cutting action.

200 mm Length to Shoulder

Peak Surgicals specifies the instrument as measuring 200 mm to the shoulder. This measurement describes the length provided on the current product page and should not be confused with a confirmed overall instrument length.

The page does not provide the total end-to-end measurement of the forceps. Buyers requiring an exact overall length should therefore confirm that specification before ordering.

Finger-Ring Handle Configuration

The Eppendorf Biopsy Punch Forceps feature finger-ring handles. This handle configuration provides direct manual control of the working end while the surgeon positions and operates the biopsy punch.

Before clinical use, the finger rings, joint, shaft, and distal blade mechanism should be checked to confirm smooth movement and proper mechanical function.

Designed for Gynecological Biopsy Procedures

The product is specifically classified by Peak Surgicals as a gynecology instrument and a punch forceps. Its biopsy-punch configuration is intended for procedures where a controlled tissue specimen is required for subsequent examination.

The exact biopsy site, sampling technique, tissue volume, and number of specimens should be determined by the appropriately trained clinician according to the procedure and patient requirements.

Eppendorf Punch Forceps Pattern

The Eppendorf pattern combines an extended instrument profile with a compact distal biopsy blade and finger-ring control. This provides a dedicated configuration rather than using a general-purpose grasping forceps for tissue sampling.

When replacing an existing Eppendorf instrument or assembling a gynecology set, the 3 × 8 mm blade and 200 mm-to-shoulder measurement should be checked against the required specification.

German Stainless Steel Construction

The current Peak Surgicals listing specifies German stainless steel construction. The rigid metallic design supports professional surgical handling and repeated instrument use.

The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not provided on the current product page. Hospitals, surgical centers, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a particular material grade or supporting documentation should confirm that information before ordering.

Reusable Gynecology Instrument

Peak Surgicals identifies the Eppendorf Biopsy Punch Forceps as reusable. Following clinical use, the instrument should be cleaned, inspected, and reprocessed according to applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.

Particular attention should be given to the 3 × 8 mm blade, joint, shaft, and articulated surfaces where biological material may remain. The instrument should be evaluated before reuse if there is corrosion, blade damage, misalignment, restricted movement, or other visible deterioration.

Available Surface Finishes

The current product specification lists satin, dull, and mirror finish options. Buyers requiring a particular finish should confirm the selected configuration when ordering.

The finish option does not change the confirmed Eppendorf pattern, blade measurement, or 200 mm-to-shoulder specification unless separately stated by Peak Surgicals.

Product Specifications

For Gynecology Departments and Surgical Procurement

The Eppendorf Biopsy Punch Forceps are relevant for gynecology departments, hospitals, surgical centers, specialist clinics, medical instrument distributors, and procurement teams sourcing reusable gynecological biopsy instruments.

For accurate purchasing and inventory identification, buyers can reference SKU PS-EBPF-00189 together with the 3 × 8 mm blade, 200 mm-to-shoulder measurement, finger-ring handles, and German stainless-steel construction. Buyers requiring exact overall length, shaft diameter, detailed blade geometry, or stainless-steel alloy grade should confirm those specifications before ordering because they are not stated on the current product page.
