Love-Kerrison rongeur working length 203mm, thin footplate angled down 90° 6.0mm bite large handle

Controlled Reach for Precise Rongeur Handling

The Love-Kerrison rongeur is a surgical bone-removal instrument designed to bite and remove targeted material through a long, angled working profile. Its 203mm working length supports access into deeper operative fields, while the 90° downward angle and extra-thin footplate help position the bite where a direct approach is limited. The 6mm bite provides a defined removal area, and the large handle is suited to controlled manual handling during instrument-dependent tasks. Appropriate for workflows in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, this rongeur combines reach, directional access, and a thin-footplate configuration in one practical instrument.

Use Cases

• Remove targeted portions of bone during general surgical procedures requiring a rongeur.
• Support neurosurgical tasks where a long 203mm working length helps reach deeper operative areas.
• Use the 90° downward orientation to approach tissue or bone from a directional angle suited to the operative field.
• Apply the 6mm bite for controlled removal when a defined bite size is appropriate.
• Use the extra-thin footplate configuration where a slimmer working profile supports access and visualization.

Care & Handling

• Clean the rongeur promptly after use in accordance with facility procedures and the applicable instrument instructions for use.
• Inspect the bite, footplate, angled shaft, and handle for visible soil, damage, or impaired movement before reuse.
• Handle the thin footplate carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to help prevent bending or accidental impact.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the bite and footplate from contact damage.
