Clinical Application
This instrument is a manual bone osteotome intended for controlled transection, shaving, and contouring of cortical and cancellous bone. The 25 mm cutting edge is sized for larger bone segments and broad bone surfaces encountered in general orthopedics, foot and ankle procedures, craniofacial reconstruction, and select plastic surgery applications. It is designed to be used with measured mallet strikes to create osteotomies, remove bone ridges, or prepare bone surfaces for fixation.
Design & Configuration
The straight chisel geometry provides a direct line of force transfer for precise, single-plane bone cuts. A 20 cm overall length offers added reach into deeper operative fields while preserving tactile feedback at the cutting edge. The broad 25 mm beveled blade distributes impact load across a wider cutting surface, enabling efficient removal of bone while minimizing need for repeated passes. The shaft and proximal shoulder are configured to tolerate mallet-assisted impulses common to osteotome technique.

Material & Construction
Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel with a ground and polished cutting edge suitable for repeated use and reprocessing. The design emphasizes rigidity and impact resistance to transmit mallet forces without excessive flex, while preserving edge geometry for clean bone cutting. Intended for standard hospital sterilization cycles.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
