Non-Heated Operating Tables
The non-heated operating tables (size 1 for mice and size 5 for other rodents) are recommended only for necropsy studies or short term anesthetized animal experiments such as procedures calling for the removal of isolated organs or tissues. These models are not upgradeable to heated versions. For general surgical work, please see heated or homeothermic models.
- Three different versions available: tripod, flat angled or flat bottom base
- Non-heated
- Includes 4 paw holders
- Capable of receiving thorax retractors and mounting ball joint holders
Accessories and Replacement Parts are also available.

The core components consist of a 300 x 185mm (11.8 x 7.3 in) anodized aluminum plate and mounting base. Both sides of the plate have multiple slots for fixing the spring-loaded paw clamps and optional thorax retractors. Numerous slots allow both large and small animals to be held firmly in position for optimal surgical access. A block clamp with ball joint holder can be fixed onto the plate for holding various probes, electrodes, or cannulae. A 4 mm banana plug outlet is available when grounding the table is required, e.g. for ECG recordings.
Three different models of the mounting base are available:
- Traditional tripod stand mounted on a ball joint allowing the table to tilt in multiple directions
- Flat angled version with a lower profile consuming less bench space
- Flat bottom
