Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur working length 254mm curved down 3.0mm x 10.0mm cup jaws, ergonomic ring handle

Extended Reach and Controlled Rongeur Handling

The Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur is a surgical biting instrument designed to remove or trim material through its curved-down cup jaws. Its 254mm working length supports access in deeper operative fields, while the 3mm bite size enables focused engagement during tasks requiring controlled removal. The curved profile can help align the jaws with the working area, and the ergonomic ring handle supports familiar instrument handling during General Surgery and Neurosurgery procedures. Built for practical, task-focused use, this rongeur combines extended reach, a defined bite, and ring-handle control in a configuration suited to workflows where access and precise manipulation are important.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled biting or removal tasks in General Surgery procedures.
• Support Neurosurgery workflows requiring a long-reach rongeur configuration.
• Use the curved jaw profile to approach working areas where a straight instrument may be less convenient.
• Apply the 3mm cup bite for focused engagement during material-removal tasks.
• Handle through the ergonomic ring handle for familiar opening and closing control.
