11-1226-17 | Cleveland Bone Rongeur
The 11-1226-17 Cleveland Bone Rongeur measures 17 cm (6 3/4 inches), giving surgical teams
a longer working option within the Cleveland rongeur range. Its length provides additional reach
compared with the 14 cm model while retaining the recognizable Cleveland configuration. The
product page identifies the instrument as a single-action bone rongeur intended for orthopedic
and neurosurgical procedures.
For facilities organizing bone surgery instruments, this model can be selected when the surgeon requires
more working distance without moving to a substantially larger rongeur.
Practical advantages of the 17 cm format include:
● 17 cm length: Provides additional reach for deeper surgical sites.
● Single-action mechanism: Gives the operator direct control over jaw movement.
● Cleveland pattern: Offers a familiar configuration for controlled bone removal.
● Balanced reach: Provides more access than compact models while remaining
manageable.
● Orthopedic and neurosurgical role: Suitable for selected laminectomy, foraminotomy,
and spinal decompression procedures.
Length can influence how comfortably a surgeon reaches the target and how much clearance is
available around the operative field. The 17 cm format provides another option between short
instruments intended for close access and longer rongeurs designed for deeper anatomy.
The product information also notes a precision-ground jaw design for bone removal. This makes
the instrument relevant when controlled resection is required rather than simply using a
general-purpose grasping tool.
The 11-1226-17 is a practical addition for surgical teams that need a medium-length Cleveland
rongeur. Add it to your orthopedic instrument inventory today.
