Plate bending pliers Alicates 140 mm – Instruments for bending (Ref AO 14-480-01)

The Plate bending pliers Alicates 140 mm – Instruments for bending (Ref AO 14-480-01) is part of the Fizza Surgical instrument catalogue, manufactured under ISO 13485:2016.

Bone surgery instruments — used in orthopaedic, trauma, spine, oral, and veterinary procedures — share a heavy robust construction that distinguishes them from soft-tissue forceps and scissors. The category includes bone-cutting forceps (Liston, Lexer, Stille-Luer), bone-holding forceps (Lambotte, Lowman, Verbrugge), rongeurs (Kerrison, Cushing, Stille), gouges and chisels (Smith-Petersen, Hibbs, Cobb), osteotomes, periosteal elevators (Doyen, Langenbeck, Hibbs), and rasps. Material requirements are demanding: cutting edges need hardened tool-grade stainless or tungsten-carbide inserts to retain sharpness under cortical-bone load. Standard lengths are 18-30 cm for handheld instruments and 25-35 cm for deep-cavity orthopaedic work. Fizza manufactures bone-surgery instruments to ISO 13485:2016 from AISI 440 and 17-4 PH stainless.

Fizza Surgical International has manufactured surgical instruments at its Sialkot, Pakistan facility since 1980 — more than four decades of continuous operation under one family ownership. The factory holds ISO 13485:2016 certification for medical devices and CE marking under EU MDR 2017/745, the regulatory baseline European hospitals and distributors require. FDA establishment registration covers exports to the United States.
