Ferris-Smith rongeur working length 203mm straight shaft angled up 40° 5.0mm bite, finger grip handle

Controlled Access and Confident Handling for Precise Bone Removal

The Ferris-Smith rongeur is a surgical bone-removal instrument designed to bite and remove bone in a controlled manner during open procedures. Its 203mm working length supports access beyond the immediate operative field, while the straight shaft and 40° upward angle help position the 5.0mm bite for targeted work. A finger-grip handle supports deliberate instrument handling during repeated adjustments. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery applications, this rongeur combines extended reach with a defined bite size for workflows requiring access, alignment, and measured removal rather than broad tissue manipulation.

Use Cases

• Remove small sections of bone during general surgery procedures requiring a 5.0mm rongeur bite.
• Support neurosurgical bone-removal tasks where the 40° upward angle helps orient the bite toward the operative area.
• Use the 203mm working length to reach areas positioned beyond the immediate hand position.
• Apply the straight shaft when a direct instrument profile is preferred for alignment and access.
• Use the finger-grip handle for controlled positioning and repeated bite placement during procedural workflows.

• Handle the bite carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to help protect its working edges.
• Store the instrument in a clean, dry location with the working end protected from contact with other instruments.
