Mead mallet w/exchang Faces 320g, 26mm, 17cm

Clinical Application

This light-weight Mead mallet is intended for controlled impaction tasks where precise, repeatable blows are required. Common uses include seating implants and trial components, advancing osteotomes, impacting chisels, and delivering tactile adjustments to bone and instrumentation in orthopedic, trauma, hand/foot and select maxillofacial procedures. The combination of a moderate head diameter and calibrated weight enables fine control over delivered energy, reducing the risk of over-impacting delicate structures.

Design & Configuration

The mallet features a Mead-style head with interchangeable faces, enabling the surgical team to tailor striking characteristics to the task—minimizing surface damage to implants and instruments or delivering firmer blows when indicated. A 26 mm face diameter provides a balance between contact area and focal force, while the 320 g head weight produces a lower-to-moderate impact level suited for precision work. The 17 cm overall length offers a compact profile for improved control in confined operative fields and for single-handed use.
