Clinical Application
This straight Hibbs bone osteotome is designed for controlled bone cutting, sculpting and osteotomy tasks in orthopedic and podiatric procedures. The 13 mm chisel tip is sized for medium-width cortical work such as trimming bone edges, removing spurs, preparing osteotomy sites, and shaping small to medium bones where precise, manual chiseling is required. It is used in procedures that require direct chisel impact with a mallet or hand pressure for fine bone removal or contouring.
Design & Configuration
The straight geometry provides direct alignment between the surgeon’s strike and the cutting edge, maximizing control and predictable force transfer during impact. A 13 mm chisel profile offers a balance between cutting width and access in confined operative fields; it removes a defined segment of bone with each strike while allowing the surgeon to perform graduated bone contouring. The 24 cm overall length gives added reach and leverage for deeper operative sites while maintaining tactile feedback at the tip for precise work.
