Magnetic Tip OB Snare

Magnetic Tip OB Snare is a specialized veterinary obstetrical instrument used to provide controlled fetal traction during difficult deliveries ( dystocia ) when obstetrical assistance is clinically indicated. The instrument incorporates a high-strength stainless steel wire loop that can be carefully positioned around an appropriate fetal body part, such as a limb or the head, depending on fetal presentation and the veterinarian’s chosen obstetrical technique. The sliding mechanism allows gradual tightening of the loop, enabling secure placement and controlled traction throughout the assisted delivery. A distinguishing feature of this model is its magnetic tip , which assists with guiding, positioning, and retrieving the wire loop during obstetrical procedures. This design can improve handling efficiency, particularly when manipulating the loop within confined working spaces. The ergonomic reusable handle provides a secure grip, excellent leverage, and precise tactile feedback, allowing veterinarians to maintain smooth, controlled traction while reducing hand fatigue during prolonged procedures. Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel with a durable magnetic tip assembly, the Magnetic Tip OB Snare offers excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term mechanical reliability. The polished or satin finish facilitates cleaning, inspection, and sterilization after each use. The instrument is commonly used in veterinary obstetrics involving cattle, horses, sheep, goats, and other livestock requiring assisted delivery. Multiple cable lengths and loop configurations are available to accommodate different animal species and clinical preferences. Widely used in veterinary hospitals, livestock farms, breeding operations, equine practices, agricultural facilities, and veterinary teaching institutions, the Magnetic Tip OB Snare is an important instrument for professional reproductive and obstetrical care. Fully reusable and autoclavable, the instrument is designed to withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles while maintaining smooth operation, structural integrity, and dependable clinical performance.
