The 11 1/2″ Schumaker Aortic Clamp Angled 60° (Cardiovascular) is a precision-engineered cardiovascular surgical instrument designed to provide surgeons with reliable control of the aorta during advanced vascular and cardiac procedures. This specialized aortic clamp combines an extended working length with a 60-degree angled configuration, allowing improved access and maneuverability in deep or challenging operative fields.

The Schumaker Aortic Clamp is designed for procedures requiring controlled temporary occlusion and manipulation of the aorta. Its angled design allows surgeons to approach vascular structures from an optimized position, improving visibility and reducing interference with surrounding anatomy. This makes it particularly valuable during procedures where precise placement and controlled handling are essential.

With an overall length of 11 1/2 inches, this cardiovascular clamp provides enhanced reach while maintaining excellent balance and surgeon control. The extended length supports access to deeper surgical sites, allowing professionals to position the instrument effectively while maintaining precision throughout the procedure. The ergonomic design helps ensure smooth operation during critical stages of cardiovascular surgery.

The 60° angled shank and jaw configuration provide functional advantages by allowing improved access around anatomical structures. This design supports accurate placement of the clamp around the aorta while helping surgeons maintain a clear operative field. Angled aortic clamps are often preferred in procedures where standard straight instruments may limit accessibility or positioning.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the 11 1/2″ Schumaker Aortic Clamp offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. The high-quality construction enables repeated sterilization cycles while maintaining mechanical precision and structural integrity. The smooth surface finish allows efficient cleaning and supports strict surgical instrument hygiene practices.

The Schumaker Aortic Clamp Angled 60° is commonly used in cardiovascular surgery, vascular reconstruction, and aortic procedures requiring dependable vessel control. It assists surgeons in managing blood flow through controlled clamping while supporting careful handling of delicate vascular tissues.

The instrument’s precision mechanism provides smooth opening and closing action, allowing controlled application and release. This helps surgeons achieve consistent performance during complex procedures where accuracy and reliability are critical. Its balanced construction also supports comfortable handling during extended operations.

Designed for professional surgical environments, the 11 1/2″ Schumaker Aortic Clamp requires proper maintenance to ensure continued performance. Regular cleaning, inspection, sterilization, and appropriate storage help preserve the clamp’s functionality and extend its service life.

Combining extended reach, specialized 60° angled design, and durable stainless steel construction, the 11 1/2″ Schumaker Aortic Clamp Angled 60° (Cardiovascular) is an essential instrument for cardiovascular surgeons requiring precise aortic control, improved surgical access, and dependable performance.
