11-1231-18 | Zaufal-Jansen Bone Rongeur
The 11-1231-18 Zaufal-Jansen Bone Rongeur is built around a double-action mechanism and a
curved working configuration. Measuring 18 cm, or 7 inches, it has 5 x 15 mm jaws intended for
controlled bone resection. The combination gives this rongeur a different working character from
smaller single-action models. Within a selection of bone surgery instruments, it is suited to procedures where the surgeon
needs a curved approach together with a double-action cutting mechanism.
The double-action design distributes the mechanical movement through the instrument’s
linkage, reducing the hand force required at the handles compared with a basic single-action
pattern. That can be useful during repeated bone removal, particularly during procedures where
several bites are required.
● Double-action mechanism: Supports stronger mechanical transmission while reducing
the amount of hand force needed to close the jaws.
● Curved working end: Provides an angled approach to bone and can help the surgeon
work around anatomical contours.
● 5 x 15 mm jaws: Offer a relatively substantial biting area for removing bone in controlled
portions.
● 18 cm length: Provides a useful balance between reach and direct instrument control.
● Surgical-grade stainless steel: The manufacturer identifies the instrument as being
fabricated from surgical-grade stainless steel for repeated clinical use.
The Zaufal-Jansen pattern is particularly appropriate for demanding orthopedic and spinal
applications where bone needs to be resected through a curved approach. Its dimensions also
make it a useful middle-length option between compact and extended rongeurs.
