16、 or neurosurgery.NOTE 3Typical methods of modifying the working end of the forcepsis to use jaw inserts or to plasma deposit (flame plate) materials withimproved wear characteristics such as tungsten carbide or stellite. For thejaw insert methods, the insert is brazed to the jaw face with a uniformd
17、eposit of silver solder that is free of crevices at all interfaces. For theflame plating method, a uniform layer of material is deposited that is 0.0046 0.001 in.
