Stille-Luer rat tooth rongeur 8 straight 8.0mm x 10.0mm bite with teeth

Straight, Tooth-Grip Rongeur for Controlled Bone Removal

The Stille-Luer rat tooth rongeur is an 8-inch straight surgical instrument designed for grasping and removing small portions of bone or hard tissue during procedures where a firm, controlled bite is needed. Its 8.0 mm x 10.0 mm toothed bite supports secure engagement, while the straight profile provides a familiar approach and direct visualization at the working site. This configuration is suited to varied workflows in General Surgery, Neurosurgery, and Orthopedic practice, helping teams perform focused rongeur work with a practical balance of reach, access, and handling control.

Use Cases

• General Surgery: use for focused removal or trimming of small bone fragments when a toothed rongeur is appropriate.
• Neurosurgery: support precise rongeur handling in workflows requiring a straight instrument profile and controlled toothed engagement.
• Orthopedic practice: assist with localized bone removal, contouring, or fragment management using the defined bite size.
• Use the straight shaft to approach the working area directly while maintaining a clear view of the instrument tip.
• Engage hard tissue with the rat-tooth bite when added purchase is useful during controlled rongeur manipulation.
