Lowman Bone Holding Clamp

The Lowman Bone Holding Clamp is a specialized orthopedic instrument designed for grasping, compressing, and temporarily stabilizing bone fragments during fracture repair, reconstruction, and related bone procedures. Its characteristic double-blade configuration provides a dedicated bone-holding instrument for procedures where fragments need to remain controlled before or during final fixation.

The current Peak Surgicals range is manufactured from medical-grade stainless steel and is available in four listed configurations, from a compact Baby Lowman 3½" model through larger 5", 7¼", and 8" options. The product is also listed within Peak Surgicals' veterinary orthopedic and bone-holding instrument ranges.

Double-Blade Bone Holding Design

The current Peak Surgicals description identifies a double-blade design as a defining feature of the Lowman Bone Holding Clamp. The opposing working surfaces provide a broad gripping configuration for maintaining controlled contact with bone fragments during orthopedic manipulation.

The exact geometry differs by the selected size. Buyers should therefore reference the complete variant description rather than assuming that every Lowman clamp has identical working-end dimensions.

Temporary Bone Fragment Stabilization

Peak Surgicals identifies the clamp for grasping, compressing, and holding bone fragments during procedures such as fracture repair and bone reconstruction. The clamp may be used when temporary stabilization is required before final fixation with plates, screws, or another selected implant system.

The final fixation method, amount of compression, and clamp placement should be determined by the operating surgeon according to the fracture pattern, anatomy, and procedure.

Baby Lowman Bone Holding Clamp 3½"

The smallest listed configuration is the Baby Lowman Bone Holding Clamp 3½". This compact version is provided as a separate selectable variant within the current Peak Surgicals listing.

The live page does not state the exact jaw range or working-end dimensions for the 3½-inch version.

Lowman Bone Holding Clamp 5" 1 × 2

The 5-inch Lowman Bone Holding Clamp is listed as 1 × 2 with a confirmed ½" to 1" jaw range. This is the only current variant where Peak Surgicals directly states an exact jaw-range specification.

Buyers requiring this particular working range should select the 5-inch variant and confirm that it matches the intended orthopedic or veterinary procedure.

Lowman Bone Holding Clamp 7¼" 1 × 2

A larger 7¼-inch Lowman Bone Holding Clamp is also available and is listed with a 1 × 2 configuration.

The current storefront does not provide a specific jaw-opening range for this version, so dimensions from the 5-inch model should not be applied to the 7¼-inch clamp.

Lowman Bone Holding Clamp 8" 1 × 2

The largest currently listed option is the 8-inch Lowman Bone Holding Clamp, also identified as a 1 × 2 configuration.

This option provides a longer overall instrument configuration for buyers requiring the larger Lowman pattern. Exact jaw range and blade dimensions are not stated on the current page.

Orthopedic and Trauma Surgery Application

The current Peak Surgicals description references orthopedic, trauma, and reconstructive surgery. It specifically identifies fracture repair, bone reconstruction, and joint procedures as application contexts for the Lowman pattern.

The instrument can be incorporated into bone reduction and fixation sets when temporary bone-fragment control is required as part of the surgical technique.

Veterinary Orthopedic Instrument

Peak Surgicals also lists the Lowman Bone Holding Clamp within its Veterinary Surgical Instruments, Veterinary Orthopedic Instruments, and Bone Holding Fragment and Reduction Instruments ranges.

This provides a clear veterinary context for the product, including animal orthopedic procedures requiring controlled bone holding and temporary fragment stabilization.

Medical-Grade Stainless Steel Construction

The current product description specifies premium medical-grade stainless steel construction. The rigid metallic structure provides the mechanical strength required for a reusable bone-holding instrument.

The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the current product page. Hospitals, veterinary facilities, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a specific steel designation or supporting material documentation should confirm that information before ordering.

Instrument Care and Reprocessing

The current product description identifies the stainless-steel construction as suitable for repeated sterilization. Following clinical use, the clamp should be cleaned, inspected, and reprocessed according to applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.

Before reuse, inspect the working blades, joint, handle, and any locking components present on the selected configuration for retained debris, corrosion, deformation, restricted movement, or visible mechanical damage.

Product Specifications

For Orthopedic and Veterinary Procurement

The Lowman Bone Holding Clamp is relevant for orthopedic departments, trauma services, veterinary surgical facilities, hospitals, operating rooms, surgical instrument distributors, and procurement teams sourcing reusable bone-holding and reduction instruments.

For accurate purchasing, buyers should specify the required 3½", 5", 7¼", or 8" configuration. Buyers selecting the 5-inch model can also reference its confirmed 1 × 2 configuration and ½" to 1" jaw range. Exact jaw dimensions for the remaining variants and the product SKU should be confirmed when required because they are not currently displayed on the live page.
