Spurling kerrison rongeur working length 200mm, thin footplate angled up 40° 2.0mm bite 15.0mm opening large handle

Controlled Access for Bone Rongeur Work

The Spurling Kerrison rongeur is a hand-operated surgical instrument used to nibble and remove bone in confined operative fields. Its 200mm working length supports reach where a longer shaft is useful, while the 40° down angle helps position the biting end within the surgical site. A 2mm bite provides a defined working profile for progressive bone removal, and the Spurling handle supports controlled manual handling during repeated instrument use. With an 8-inch overall length, this rongeur is suited to relevant tasks in both General Surgery and Neurosurgery where access, positioning, and deliberate tissue handling are important.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled nibbling and removal of bone during General Surgery procedures.
• Support bone-removal tasks in Neurosurgery where the 200mm working length provides access to deeper or more confined operative fields.
• Use the 40° down orientation to help position the biting end around the operative site.
• Apply the Spurling handle during repeated manual rongeur work requiring controlled opening and closing.
• Use the 2mm bite for progressive removal of bone rather than relying on a single larger bite.
