Diethrich Bulldog Clamp Curved 4.5 to 5.5 cm

The curved Diethrich bulldog clamp reaches a vessel at an angle and still closes flat along the jaw, in 4.5, 5 and 5.5 cm. It is the micro vascular clamp to use when the approach is oblique or a branch sits in the way, and the calibrated leaf spring occludes without crushing intima the way a locking bulldog clamp can. Pick your length from the dropdown. Bulk discounts apply on multi-piece and full-set orders.

Built for Repeated Use

Formed and ground from AISI 420 martensitic stainless steel, spring-tempered so the closing force stays constant through years of use rather than fading. The curved jaws are matched in pairs so the serrations meet along their full length. The satin finish resists staining, and full autoclave cycles at 134 °C cause no loss of spring force.

Direct From the Manufacturer

We manufacture this instrument in our own Sialkot workshop and sell straight to surgeons, clinics, hospitals and distributors, so there is no importer margin in the price. Every clamp is closing-force tested and jaw-alignment checked before dispatch and carries a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Ask for bulk pricing on multi-piece and full-set orders, and for OEM laser marking on volume quantities.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do I need the curved jaw instead of straight?
When the vessel cannot be approached in line: an oblique exposure, a branch in the way, or a clamp that has to sit out of the anastomosis field. Straight jaws have their own page.

Which length should I choose?
4.5 cm for the smallest vessels and tight fields, 5 cm for routine micro work, 5.5 cm where a longer jaw gives a better bite. Most micro sets carry all three.

Will it damage the intima?
The spring is calibrated to occlude and no more, and the serrations are cut fine and atraumatic. Used within its intended vessel calibre it does not crush the wall.

Does the spring weaken after autoclaving?
No. The steel is spring-tempered, so full cycles at 134 °C do not change the closing force.

Do you supply straight and curved as a set?
Yes. Order from both pages and tell us it is a set order; bulk discounts apply on multi-piece and full-set quantities.

Is it supplied sterile?
No. It ships clean and non-sterile, ready for your own cleaning and autoclave cycle at 134 °C before first use.
