Surgical Clamps for Clinics, Hospitals, and Professional Buyers

Surgical Clamps: Vascular, Intestinal & Towel Clamp Patterns

Surgical clamps close off or hold structures during an operation — occluding blood vessels to control bleeding, holding bowel without crushing it, or securing drapes to the operative field. Vascular clamps use finely serrated or atraumatic jaws that seal a vessel without damaging its wall; intestinal clamps use longer, flexible blades that hold bowel gently; towel clamps hold drapes and tissue in place. NJ Medical Instruments manufactures the full range in surgical-grade stainless steel, supplied worldwide direct from the factory for individual purchase and for bulk, wholesale, and OEM/private-label supply.

The main groups of surgical clamps

Vascular and arterial clamps temporarily occlude arteries and veins during anastomosis and repair. Atraumatic jaw serrations grip firmly enough to stop flow while protecting the vessel intima, so it can be reopened without injury. Patterns include profunda, femoral, and bulldog clamps for smaller vessels.Intestinal and occlusion clamps — such as Fehland patterns — have long, shallow, sometimes flexible blades that close bowel gently along its length, controlling contents without crushing the wall.Towel clamps secure surgical drapes. Perforating patterns (Backhaus) pierce the drape and tissue; non-perforating patterns grip without penetrating, which is preferred where puncture must be avoided.Haemostatic clamps such as Kocher and artery forceps clamp bleeding vessels directly. For a full pattern comparison see our artery forceps and ligature clamps guide.

Frequently asked questions

What are surgical clamps used for?

Surgical clamps close off or hold structures during an operation. Vascular clamps occlude arteries and veins during repair, intestinal clamps hold bowel without crushing it, haemostatic clamps stop bleeding vessels, and towel clamps secure surgical drapes.

What is an arterial clamp?

An arterial or vascular clamp temporarily occludes an artery to stop blood flow during anastomosis or repair. Its jaws use fine atraumatic serrations that hold the vessel closed without damaging the vessel wall, so flow can be restored safely.

What is a bulldog clamp?

A bulldog clamp is a small spring-loaded vascular clamp used to occlude smaller vessels. It closes under its own spring tension rather than a ratchet, applying light, controlled pressure.

What is an intestinal clamp used for?

An intestinal clamp holds and occludes a section of bowel during resection or anastomosis. Its long, shallow, often flexible blades spread pressure along the bowel so contents are controlled without crushing the tissue.

What is the difference between perforating and non-perforating towel clamps?

Perforating towel clamps have sharp crossed points that pierce the drape and underlying tissue for a very secure hold. Non-perforating towel clamps grip with blunt jaws without puncturing, which is preferred when penetration must be avoided.
