Ferris-Smith-Kerrison Rongeur

thin footplates, small handles, black/gold titanium nitride coatBi-Color Ceramic Cut Micro Kerrison Ejector Rongeur is identical to our popular Micro Kerrison model but with a small pin ejector that sits within the shaft that's designed to eject any material from within the column when the handle is released. This allows the shaft to remain clear and assists during decontamination and sterilization, ultimately preserving the life of the instrument. Bi-Color rongeurs feature a combination black and gold titanium nitride surface treatment, which hardens and protects the instrument body and cutting surface for a durable, smooth gliding action. These coated rongeurs do not need sharpening as often as traditional rongeurs, thus reducing operating costs and enhancing service life. It is specifically designed for use in laminectomies in which a portion of the vertebral arch is removed posteriorly.

thin footplates, large handles, 15.0 mm opening, black/gold titanium nitride coatBi-Color Ceramic Cut Spurling-Kerrison Rongeur is a uniquely designed instrument that can be used in a variety of orthopedic surgeries. Also known as Love-Style Kerrisons, they feature traditional large handles and a 15.0 mm bite opening, unlike the smaller Micro Kerrison styles. This model also features a black ceramic surface treatment which provides unparalleled hardness and durability. The black and gold titanium nitride surface treatment hardens and protects the instrument body and cutting surface for a durable, smooth gliding action. These coated rongeurs do not need sharpening as often as traditional rongeurs, thus reducing operating costs and enhancing service life. Additionally it is available in 6", 7", 8", 9", 10" and 11" and at either 40 degrees or 90 degrees up or down making it well suited for a vast array of surgeries that require manipulation of very small and delicate tendons and cartilage.

regular footplates, large handles, strong 70 degrees up-curved shaft, 40 degree up bite, 8" (20.0 cm), black ceramic coat Ceramic Cut Micro Kerrison Foraminotomy Rongeurs are specialized instruments designed for use in laminectomies. The 70 degree up-curved shaft is ideal for better visualization and access needed in foraminotomy procedures. This rongeur features thin footplates and large handles, making it ideal for use in the narrow space surrounding the vertebral column. It is available in 2.0 – 5.0 mm bite in 1.0 mm increments to accommodate any surgical scenario. The ceramic cut style offers additional benefits in the form of a black ceramic surface treatment which provides unparalleled hardness and durability. The coating is designed to reduce the friction between metal surfaces, providing surgeons with a smooth, steady gliding action and a longer-lasting rongeur.

undefinedCeramic Cut Improved Rotating Kerrison Rongeurs provide all the benefits of the standard rotating shaft models, but with an improved release mechanism and shaft as well as black ceramic coating. The special tubular shaft can be rotated in 45-degree steps in 8 different locking positions, for a range of cutting angles. The shaft may only be released in 1 of the 8 positions, preventing accidental release during surgery. The shaft comes apart in 4 different pieces for easy cleaning and sterilization. In addition, the tubular shape of the shaft makes disassembly faster and cleaning easier, unlike traditional rongeurs which have two sliding (upper and lower) shafts. Please note this is for the shaft only. Handles are ordered separately.
