A surgical instrument specifically designed to twist surgical wire after this has been applied to the site in order to tighten the loop or binding that has been made by the surgeon. The loose ends of the wire are inserted into and gripped by the jaws of this device, and the surgeon pulls a handle which spins the spirally grooved centre piece, thereby twisting and tightening the wire. It is typically used in orthopaedic procedures. This is a reusable device.
