Spurling kerrison rongeur working length 180mm, thin footplate angled up 40° 5.0mm bite 15.0mm opening large handle

Controlled Access with an Extra-Thin, Up-Angled Bite

This Spurling Kerrison rongeur is a surgical bone-biting instrument intended for controlled removal of small amounts of bone during operative exposure. Its 180mm working length supports access into deeper fields, while the extra-thin footplate and 40° up-angled configuration help position the bite where a straight profile may be less convenient. The 5mm bite and 15.0mm opening provide a defined working geometry for repeated rongeur passes. The Spurling handle shape supports familiar instrument handling across General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, including procedures requiring careful access and visualization around confined anatomical areas. Use it within facility technique and reprocessing protocols.

Use Cases

• General Surgery workflows requiring controlled bone removal during operative exposure.
• Neurosurgery procedures where an up-angled Kerrison profile can support access in confined operative fields.
• Deep-field work benefiting from a 180mm working length and a 40° up-facing bite direction.
• Tasks requiring a defined 5mm bite with a 15.0mm opening for progressive rongeur passes.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the rongeur promptly after use according to facility protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the thin footplate, bite edges, opening, and angled working end for damage, distortion, or retained debris before and after use.
• Handle the working end carefully to protect the footplate and biting surfaces from impact or contact with other instruments.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the jaws and working end from damage.
