Bone Rasp

5-1/8" (13.0 cm) Bone and Skin Rasp is a unique instrument ideal for use in surgical procedures that require manipulation of bone and other hard tissue surfaces. This rasp features a long, slim handle from which extends a spatula like protrusion that has an alternating pattern of dots on it that makes this surface suited for slight filing. Not as abrasive as a file this rasp can be used for the mild reshaping of bone or more delicate semi-solid tissue layers such as bone to prevent sharp edges from causing damage to other adjacent tissue or vasculature.

single-ended, 2-sided convex & flat blade, 23.0 mm width tapers to 6.0 mm, 11" (28.0 cm) Bone File is a ideally suited for many different surgical procedures. It is specifically designed to be used to file away at bone fragments that are caused by breaks or cuts or on coarse hard tissues in different parts of the body. They can be especially useful in neurosurgical and orthopedic procedures that can involve maneuvering and exploring around many different bony areas such as the skull, long bones and vertebral column. Additionally this file is single sided with a convex and flat blade and a 23.0 mm width that tapers to 6.0 mm.

double-ended, plain serrations, 6.0 mm & 5.0 mm wide ends, 7" (17.5 cm) Bone File #33 is ideally suit for use in neurosurgical and orthopedic surgeries that require manipulation of bone in and around delicate tissue structures. This type of instrument can be useful in filing down the skull in procedures like craniotomies or in reshaping the vertebral arch during laminectomies or hemi-laminectomies. This gives added protection to the brain tissue or neurovascular bundles that can pass over these cut surfaces that may be jagged and could cause additionally injury or trauma. Additionally this file is double ended with plain serrations and features a 6.0 mm and 5.0 mm wide ends.

double-ended, down-cutting teeth, medium & large ends, octagonal handle, 7-1/4" (18.4 cm) Miller-Colburn File can be used to soften jagged edges or rough surfaces on bone or other hard surfaces. This file features a slim, octagonal body shaft that doubles as a handle from which two different sizes blade extend on either side. Both ends features down-cutting teeth that allow it to grab hold and uniformly file away at a surface such as the skull or vertebral fragment to protect surrounding tissue from damage in craniotomies or spinal surgeries.
