Smith Peterson Bone Gouge str 25mm, 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed for manual bone sculpting, this straight Smith Peterson gouge is intended to remove, scoop, and shape cortical and cancellous bone during orthopedic, trauma, spine, hand/foot, and maxillofacial procedures. The 25 mm cutting edge provides efficient coverage for moderate-to-large bone surfaces while the 20 cm overall length offers reach into deeper or narrow operative fields. The instrument is useful for creating troughs, refining bony margins, and preparing bone beds where precise, controlled manual bone removal is preferred to powered instruments.

Design & Configuration

The straight shaft provides a direct line of force and tactile feedback, enabling controlled scraping and levering motions. The scooped, single-beveled cutting geometry concentrates cutting forces at the edge to facilitate efficient bone removal with minimal chatter, helping to produce a cleaner bone surface. The 25 mm blade width balances coverage and control—large enough for rapid material removal yet narrow enough for precise contouring in confined areas.
