Cotton Swab Forceps

Cotton swab and sponge-holding forceps carry a tubular or fenestrated working end sized to the swab or sponge being handled. Length, shaft form, jaw or cup profile, and ratchet or spring configuration are the main identifiers.

Procurement should confirm the intended swab or sponge size so the working end can be matched correctly, then define finish, marking, and packaging. Where supplied in a set, the bill of materials should be documented separately.
