Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur working length 254mm curved down 6.0mm x 10.0mm cup jaws, ergonomic ring handle

Controlled Reach for Targeted Rongeur Handling

The Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur is a surgical biting instrument intended for controlled removal or trimming of bone and other hard material during appropriate procedures. Its 254mm working length provides extended reach, while the curved-down profile helps orient the 6.0mm x 10.0mm cup jaws toward the working site. The ergonomic ring handle supports a familiar, stable grip for controlled opening and closing. Suitable for workflow requirements in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, this configuration combines a long working reach with a defined cup bite for focused handling where access and instrument positioning are important.

Use Cases

• General Surgery tasks requiring controlled biting or removal of bone with a defined 6mm cup bite.
• Neurosurgery workflows where the 254mm working length supports access to a deeper operative field.
• Procedures benefiting from curved-down jaw orientation for positioning the cup jaws at the intended working site.
• Repeated rongeur manipulation where an ergonomic ring handle provides a familiar grip and controlled jaw actuation.
• Focused hard-tissue trimming tasks using the 6.0mm x 10.0mm cup-jaw configuration.
