Speci®-Ceps, Heated forceps

Speci®-Ceps are electrically-heated forceps designed for the preparation of histological or histopathological slides.

• Continuous use, without adjustment, and without influencing the temperature of the medium or tissue
• Eliminates the need to keep forceps at a usable temperature, enabling the operator to concentrate on orientation of the tissue
• Results in a significant increase in productivity

To prevent the cold tips of normal forceps from solidifying the liquid wax medium, it is necessary to repeatedly remove the forceps from the work and heat them by external means - in a flame or embedding centre. Speci®-Ceps incorporate safe, low voltage, energy-controlled heating elements which constantly maintain the tips at an optimum temperature for manipulation of specimens in histological wax.
