Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur 9 1/2" working length 180mm straight 6.0mm x 10.0mm cup jaws, finger grip handle

Straight-Cup Rongeur for Controlled Surgical Handling

The Ferris-Smith IVD rongeur is a straight, cup-jaw surgical instrument designed for controlled biting and removal of small amounts of tissue or bone during operative handling. Its 180mm working length provides useful reach for General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, while the straight profile supports direct instrument positioning and a clear line of approach. The 6.0mm x 10.0mm cup jaws are suited to focused bites, and the finger grip handle supports deliberate manipulation during repetitive instrument use. Together, these features provide a practical balance of access, bite control, and handling familiarity for procedure-specific surgical tasks.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled biting and removal of small amounts of tissue or bone in General Surgery workflows.
• Apply the straight profile when a direct approach to the working area is preferred.
• Use the 180mm working length when additional reach is useful within the operative field.
• Support focused biting tasks in Neurosurgery workflows where a straight rongeur configuration is appropriate.
• Use the finger grip handle for deliberate opening, positioning, and release during instrument handling.
