The Cloward Drill Shaft with Stop Small, 5 5/8″ is a specialized surgical component designed for use with compatible Cloward-style drilling instrumentation. It provides a dedicated shaft configuration for controlled bone drilling and preparation, while the integrated stop supports consistent positioning during the surgical procedure.
With an overall length of 5 5/8 inches, this drill shaft provides a practical working length for appropriate surgical applications. The Small configuration identifies the specific shaft size and should be matched with compatible Cloward-style components. Proper component selection is important for maintaining secure assembly and appropriate instrument performance.
The integrated stop serves as a positioning or depth-limiting feature within the compatible instrumentation system. When used according to the manufacturer’s specifications and the surgeon’s technique, the stop can help establish a controlled endpoint during drilling. Actual drilling depth and application depend on the complete instrument system and the requirements of the procedure.
Cloward-style drill shafts may be incorporated into orthopedic and spinal surgical instrument systems where controlled drilling or bone preparation is required. This component should be used with the appropriate compatible drill tip, driver, or related instrumentation. Compatibility should be verified before use rather than assumed based only on the Cloward-style designation.
The Small configuration offers a specific size option for instrument sets requiring a corresponding shaft. Its 5 5/8-inch length allows the component to provide useful surgical access while maintaining a controlled connection with compatible instrumentation. It can be incorporated into organized orthopedic or spinal instrument trays where component-specific sizes are important.
The drill shaft is typically manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel or another suitable medical instrument material selected for durability, strength, and resistance to corrosion. Proper construction supports reliable handling and repeated processing when the component is supplied as a reusable surgical instrument and maintained according to validated instructions.
Before each procedure, the shaft should be inspected for bending, corrosion, surface damage, excessive wear, or defects around the stop and connection areas. Compatible components should be securely assembled according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Damaged or improperly fitting components should not be used.
If supplied as a reusable instrument, the Cloward Drill Shaft with Stop Small should be cleaned promptly after use and sterilized according to the manufacturer’s validated instructions and applicable healthcare facility protocols. Inspection after cleaning can help confirm that the shaft and stop remain in suitable working condition.
With its Small configuration, 5 5/8-inch length, and integrated stop, this Cloward-style drill shaft provides a specialized component for compatible orthopedic and spinal drilling systems requiring controlled positioning and component-specific instrumentation.
