Hibbs gouge 9 1/4" curved 22.0mm wide blade hexagonal handle

Curved Hibbs Gouge for Controlled Surgical Bone Work

The Hibbs gouge is a curved, 9 1/4-inch instrument with a 22.0 mm wide blade and hexagonal handle, intended for controlled gouging and removal of bone in surgical workflows. Its curved profile supports access to the working area while the broad blade presents a substantial contact surface for task-focused manipulation. The hexagonal handle offers a defined hand interface that can support deliberate positioning during use. Suitable for general surgery and orthopedic settings, this gouge fits procedures requiring a dedicated gouging instrument rather than a flat, straight profile. Its practical format supports repeatable handling, clear instrument identification, and efficient setup at the sterile field.

Use Cases

• Gouging and removing bone during general surgery workflows.
• Supporting orthopedic procedures that require a curved gouge profile and broad working blade.
• Accessing a working area where the curved shape may provide a more suitable approach than a straight gouge.
• Using the hexagonal handle as a defined gripping surface for controlled instrument positioning.
