When you are putting the loop on, the "tip" of the heart is still attached to the base rod.
After putting on the loop, I grab them with a hemostat that I picked up someplace that has what looks like normal jaws, until you open them. At the jaw tip, these hemo's have a "tooth" on one jaw, that slips into a slot on the other jaw, when closed. This INSURES that the loop cannot slip out of your grip when you melt off the rod at the tip, as the tooth protrudes into the loop hole.
Also, make sure you heat the hemo tips before grabbing the loop or you risk cracking the loop from the cold steel.
Edit: I looked around and they MAY be called "halsted-mosquito" hemos. Maybe a nurse/doctor type person will read this and confirm ??
