Spurling kerrison rongeur working length 203mm, regular footplate angled up 40º 5.0mm bite medium handle

Controlled Access for Precise Rongeur Handling

The Spurling Kerrison rongeur is a surgical instrument designed for controlled biting and removal of hard tissue in procedures requiring focused access. Its 203mm working length supports reach into deeper operative fields, while the regular footplate angled upward at 40° helps orient the bite toward the working site. The 5.0mm bite and medium handle provide a practical configuration for repeated instrument handling. Suitable for relevant tasks in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, this angled rongeur supports a clear, deliberate workflow where access, directional control, and consistent handling are important.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled biting and removal of hard tissue during relevant General Surgery procedures.
• Support access in deeper operative fields where a 203mm working length is appropriate.
• Use the 40° upward angle to approach the working site with a defined directional orientation.
• Apply in Neurosurgery workflows requiring a Kerrison rongeur configuration for focused access and tissue removal.
• Use the 5.0mm bite for tasks suited to a medium-sized rongeur opening.
