The Dumont #55 Forceps is an ultra-fine micro-dissection tool used for delicate tissue manipulation, nerve dissection, and microsurgery in rodent models, particularly in neuroscience and electrophysiology workflows.

The Dumont #55 is manufactured from high-grade surgical stainless steel, providing the exceptional tip precision required for micro-dissection while maintaining autoclave compatibility.

Yes. The Dumont #55 withstands standard autoclave cycles (121°C, 15 min) and can be reused across multiple procedures when properly cleaned and stored tip-up.

The Dumont #55 is ideal for ultra-fine dissection of nerves, blood vessels, and soft tissue in mice and rats, and is widely used in patch clamp, in vivo electrophysiology, and microsurgery setups.

The Dumont #55 shares the same tip bevel geometry as the #5 but features lighter, thinner shanks, providing enhanced tactile feedback and reduced hand fatigue during extended micro-dissection work. The finer build makes the #55 the preferred choice for the most delicate procedures where minimal force and maximum precision are required.
