Rat and Mouse Head Holder
The rat and mouse head holder is a professional device used for precisely fixing the head of experimental animals in neuroscience research. Through a three-point positioning system (ear bars + incisor bar/nasal clamp), it ensures the animal's head remains in absolute stability during experiments, providing fundamental support for precise brain operations.

Introduction
The head holder for rats and mice, also known as a brain holder, is a component of a stereotaxic instrument. It is suitable for surgeries that do not require brain localization and only need to fix the head and brain of rats and mice. Since there is no interference from redundant operating arms, it provides a large operating space, which makes the surgery more flexible.
Features
Three-point fixation: Forms a stable triangular fixation through the incisor/nasal clip and two ear bars, ensuring the animal's head remains completely stationary.

Made of metal:High strength, good stability, and strong corrosion resistance.

Flat anti-slip base:Stabilizes the tabletop and prevents displacement during operation.

Modular design: One set of equipment can be used for both rats and mice by replacing the adapter.

High-precision adjustment: The height of the nasal clip and ear bars can be finely adjusted independently to accurately calibrate the cranial-facial level, with laser scales showing the position.

Mini Mouse Head holder

Mini base with dimensions (L×W×H): 150*100*75mm, easy for flexible placement.

Universal Rat and Mouse Head holder

Equipped with a U-shaped base the same as that of the stereotaxic instrument, without an attached 3D manipulator, providing ample surgical space. If 3D positioning of the brain is needed later, it can be upgraded by adding a 3D manipulator. The standard model is for rats and can be used for mouse head fixation by matching with a mouse adapter.
