Orthopedic Bone Gouge Straight 10.0 mm Blade 30.0 cm (12)

Controlled Gouging with Reach and Confident Handling

The Dahmen-Lexer gouge is a straight, 11 3/4-inch instrument used for controlled gouging and shaping of bone in general surgery and orthopedic procedures. Its 10.0 mm wide blade provides a defined working surface for deliberate material removal, while the extended length supports access within the operative field. The phenolic handle offers a substantial gripping area for controlled manipulation during repetitive instrument work. Combining a straight profile with a focused blade width, this gouge supports consistent handling and clear orientation as professionals prepare, contour, or refine bone surfaces according to the requirements of the procedure.

Use Cases

• Gouging and shaping bone during general surgical procedures.
• Controlled bone preparation and contouring in orthopedic workflows.
• Working through deeper or less direct access points where the 11 3/4-inch length is useful.
• Using the straight profile to maintain a direct approach to the working area.
• Applying the 10.0 mm wide blade for focused, deliberate removal across a defined surface.
