Golfball Micro Needle Holder – Stainless Steel
Our Vision
We believe that great instruments make great surgeons even better. Every needle holder we manufacture carries the responsibility for a human life.
Designed and manufactured in Germany. With the dedication and standards that microsurgery deserves.
Highlights
Stainless Steel, Titanium or TC-coated. Each material optimized for specific requirements.
Patented indentations reduce grip pressure during long procedures.
Three lock variants for every surgical technique and personal preference.
Jacobson, Castroviejo, Coronary, Golfball – the right choice for every specialty.
CE-certified. MDR-compliant. Over 40 manufacturing steps per instrument.
Every instrument is inspected under the microscope. No compromise.
Materials
Stainless Steel – The proven classic. Robust, sterilizable, durable. Ideal for daily use.
Titanium – Lighter, stronger, non-magnetic. The blue titanium coating is not just distinctive – it makes the surface harder and more resistant.
TC-coated – Tungsten Carbide inserts in the jaw. For the firmest grip on the finest sutures. Recognizable by the golden handle.
Our Mission
We give surgeons the instruments they deserve. Not the cheapest. But the best.
Every needle holder undergoes over 40 manufacturing steps. From CNC milling to final inspection under the microscope. No instrument leaves our facility that we wouldn't use in the operating room ourselves.
Ergonomics
Our Golfball Handle technology is not a gimmick – it is the result of years of collaboration with surgeons. The indentations in the handle reduce grip pressure by up to 30% and prevent fatigue during long procedures.
Whether Round Handle, Flat Handle or our patented Golfball Handle: every variant has been optimized for specific surgical techniques.

From the jaw to the handle – manufactured with the precision that micro sutures demand.
Titanium Series
The titanium coating is not just a visual statement. It increases surface hardness threefold, makes the instrument non-magnetic and significantly reduces weight.
The distinctive blue-black of our Titanium Series stands for our promise: uncompromising quality that you can see and feel.
Our Values
We measure in micrometers, not millimeters. Every instrument is inspected under the microscope – because in microsurgery there is no room for compromise.
Behind every instrument is a person undergoing surgery. We carry this responsibility with pride – and with the highest quality standards.
We combine traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art CNC technology. The result: instruments that redefine the standard in microsurgery.
Our Needle Holders in action – from vascular surgery to neurosurgery.
The finest anastomoses on vessels of 1-3mm diameter require absolutely precise needle guidance. Our Jacobson and Coronary Needle Holders are designed for this purpose.
In the field of neurosurgery, every micrometer counts. Our Bayonet Needle Holders offer perfect visibility and access in deep surgical fields.
Aesthetic results begin with the right instrument. Our Needle Holders enable precise sutures with minimal tissue trauma.
On the open heart there is no second chance. Our Coronary Needle Holders provide the decisive hold for the finest suture on the heart.
Ophthalmic surgery demands the finest instruments. Our Castroviejo series was specifically developed for ophthalmic procedures.
