Bunnell Hand Drill with S.S Chuck 16cm

Clinical Application

A manual Bunnell-style hand drill provides controlled, tactile drilling for small-bone and soft-tissue fixation procedures. It is commonly used in hand and upper-extremity surgery, trauma cases, and other orthopaedic applications where precise pilot holes or passage for K-wires, pins, or transosseous sutures are required. The manual drive is advantageous when low-speed, high-control drilling is preferable to power instruments—for example when proximity to delicate structures or fine bone stock requires incremental advancement and immediate tactile feedback.

Design & Configuration

The hand-operated design delivers fine tactile control and immediate feedback during bit engagement and bone penetration, reducing the risk of over-drilling. The straight shaft and 16 cm overall length provide reach into deeper surgical fields while maintaining a slim profile for visibility and access in confined anatomical spaces. The stainless steel chuck secures small drill bits or wires and allows quick bit changes under sterile conditions without electrical equipment.
