Orthopedic Bone Gouge Straight 12.0 mm Blade 21.9 cm (8.6)

Controlled Gouge Handling for General and Orthopedic Workflows

The Dahmen-Lexer gouge is a straight, 8 5/8-inch instrument designed for controlled gouging and material removal during surgical procedures. Its 12.0 mm wide blade presents a defined working surface for tasks requiring deliberate, focused contact, while the phenolic handle supports a familiar manual grip. The straight profile can help maintain a direct working approach in general surgery and orthopedic settings, where access, visibility, and instrument control are important considerations. Its practical configuration suits repeatable preparation and shaping tasks within established operative workflows, helping teams select a gouge that matches the required blade width and handling preference.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled gouging and material removal in general surgical workflows.
• Support orthopedic procedures requiring a straight gouge with a 12.0 mm wide blade.
• Apply the direct straight profile when a straightforward working approach is preferred.
• Use the phenolic-handled instrument for deliberate manual manipulation during preparation and shaping tasks.
