Ceramic Cut Bayonet Micro Kerrison Rongeur

undefined Ceramic Cut Rotating Kerrison Rongeurs feature a fully-rotatable instrument shaft, removable with the click of a single thumb release lever. The rotating shaft allows for a range of cutting angles, and the removable shaft is ideal for thorough decontamination and sterilization of the instrument. These instruments feature a unique combination: the small handles typical of Micro Kerrison styles, with the larger bite opening typical of Spurling-Kerrison styles. This is a perfect compromise for surgeons who prefer the small handles but do not want to lose the advantages of a larger bite opening. A bayonet-shaft version of the rotating rongeur is also available. 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.
