The 9 1/2″ Bone Impactor 1/4″ Round is an orthopedic surgical instrument designed for controlled bone handling, positioning, and manual impaction. Its extended 9 1/2-inch length provides useful reach while the 1/4-inch round working end offers a focused contact area for controlled interaction with bone during surgical procedures.
The round working configuration provides a defined contact surface that can be selected when a compact, concentrated working area is appropriate. The 9 1/2-inch overall length supports access and handling while maintaining direct manual control of the instrument. This combination makes the bone impactor a practical addition to orthopedic and trauma instrument sets where different working-end dimensions and lengths may be required.
This bone impactor can be incorporated into orthopedic, trauma, reconstructive, and related surgical instrument trays for procedures involving controlled bone manipulation or impaction. The specific use and technique should be determined by the trained surgical professional according to the procedure and anatomical requirements.
The instrument’s manual design allows controlled application of force without relying on powered mechanisms. Its focused 1/4-inch round working end supports precise contact when a smaller contact area is required. The 9 1/2-inch shaft length also provides a useful balance between working reach and instrument handling within the surgical field.
For reusable surgical instrumentation, appropriate processing is essential. After use, the bone impactor should be thoroughly cleaned according to the healthcare facility’s validated instrument-processing protocol. The working end, shaft, and other surfaces should be inspected for retained surgical material, damage, deformation, corrosion, or excessive wear before sterilization.
Sterilization should be performed using a validated method compatible with the instrument and in accordance with applicable manufacturer instructions and healthcare facility procedures. Proper cleaning, inspection, sterilization, handling, and storage help maintain the instrument’s functional condition and support reliable service over repeated surgical use.
The 9 1/2″ Bone Impactor 1/4″ Round is suited to professional orthopedic instrument collections requiring a longer instrument with a compact round working configuration. Its specified dimensions provide a practical option for controlled bone handling and manual impaction where focused contact and extended reach are desired.
