Bone Rongeur Micro Friedman 45° 14.5cm
Micro-profile surgical bone rongeur featuring a reverse 45° angled jaw for precise bone removal in anatomically challenging access areas.
Key Features:
• Crafted from medical-grade stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance
• Overall length of 14.5cm provides precise control during delicate procedures
• Reverse 45° jaw orientation improves access to inward-facing bone surfaces
• Narrow 1.3mm cup-shaped tip enables controlled incremental bone removal
• Upward-biting jaw design reduces the need for excessive wrist repositioning
• Dual-spring handle mechanism delivers consistent jaw reopening after each bite
• Serrated inner handle surfaces enhance grip security in wet surgical environments
• Compact jaw profile supports access to confined periodontal and surgical sites
• Fully autoclavable for repeated sterilization and clinical reuse
The Bone Rongeur Micro Friedman 45° 14.5cm measures 14.5 cm in total length and features a 1.3 mm narrow cup-shaped jaw tip angled at 45° in a reverse upward orientation, the jaw face points away from the instrument axis in the opposite direction compared to standard forward-angled variants. The frame is constructed entirely from medical-grade stainless steel, corrosion-resistant and fully compatible with autoclave sterilization cycles. A double-spring handle mechanism runs along both inner handle shanks, with two independent springs working simultaneously to hold the jaws open and restore them after each compression. Serrated ridges line both handle inner surfaces across the full grip length, providing stable finger contact under wet operative conditions.
The reverse 45° jaw geometry positions the cutting face to bite upward and away from the handle line, enabling the surgeon to engage bone surfaces that face toward the operator rather than away from it. Micro Friedman 45 14.5cm Bone Rongeur #S1138 instruments work specifically in anatomical zones where forward-angled jaws cannot seat their cutting face against the target surface without awkward wrist compensation.
Rongeurs – Surgical Dental Instruments of this upward-biting configuration are used by oral and maxillofacial surgeons during osteotomy site preparation to trim bone ledges on the palatal or lingual aspect of the ridge. Periodontists select this instrument during osseous surgery to remove bony projections along the underside of interdental septa. The Bone Rongeur Micro Friedman 45° 14.5cm also fits gross tissue removal workflows following posterior extractions where tissue and bone debris accumulate beneath overhanging socket walls.
Good instrument manufacturers meet written specifications. Leader Surgical goes further, every instrument in their catalog undergoes performance testing that confirms real-world functional behavior, not just dimensional compliance, before it ever reaches a surgical tray.
How does the “Micro” version differ from a standard Friedman rongeur?
- Tip Width: Micro Friedman rongeurs feature extra delicate jaws, often around 1.3mm to 1.5mm wide, compared to the 2mm–5mm tips found on standard models.
- Precision: The smaller profile is optimized for minimal access sites and microsurgery, such as ENT, orbital, or pediatric procedures.
