Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur 9 1/2" working length 180mm curved down 2.0mm x 10.0mm cup jaws, finger grip handle

Controlled Reach for Precise Rongeur Handling

The Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur is a surgical rongeur used to remove small bone or hard-tissue fragments during hands-on operative work. Its 180mm working length supports access into deeper or restricted areas, while the curved-down profile can help position the cup jaws at the intended site. The 2.0mm x 10.0mm cup jaws are suited to focused biting, and the finger-grip handle supports deliberate instrument control during repetitive manipulation. Appropriate for workflows in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, this configuration combines extended reach, a defined bite size, and practical handling in one specialty-neutral instrument.

Use Cases

• Remove small bone or hard-tissue fragments during general surgical procedures.
• Support controlled rongeur work in neurosurgical procedures where extended reach is useful.
• Use the curved-down profile to approach a target area with the cup jaws aligned to the working site.
• Apply the 2mm bite size for focused, incremental removal rather than broad engagement.
• Use the finger-grip handle for steady manipulation during repeated biting and repositioning.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the rongeur according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the cup jaws, curved working end, and handle before and after use for visible damage, deformation, or impaired movement.
• Handle the jaws carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to help protect their defined biting edges.
• Store the instrument in a manner that prevents contact damage to the working end.
