Parkes rasp 8" backward cutting, grit 2 7.5mm wide, extra fine TC teeth gold grip handle

Controlled Rasping for Focused Surgical Preparation

The Parkes rasp is a surgical rasp designed for controlled shaping and smoothing work where a backward-cutting profile and compact working width support deliberate instrument handling. Its 8-inch length provides useful reach within the operative field, while the 7.5 mm width offers a defined contact area for focused rasping. In ENT, general surgery, and orthopedic workflows, it can support bone-preparation tasks that call for measured material removal and clear control of the instrument. The tungsten-carbide coating identifies the cutting surface and helps distinguish this configuration during setup, use, inspection, and reprocessing according to facility procedures.

Use Cases

• Shape or smooth bone during orthopedic procedures requiring a controlled rasping instrument.
• Support ENT workflows involving focused bone preparation in areas where a 7.5 mm working width is appropriate.
• Use in general surgery workflows for deliberate rasping and surface refinement during operative preparation.
• Apply the backward-cutting profile when the surgical task calls for a rasp configured for that cutting direction.
• Use the 8-inch length to provide practical reach while maintaining deliberate control of the instrument.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the rasp according to the facility's validated protocols and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the tungsten-carbide cutting surface and instrument condition before and after use; remove from service if damage or abnormal wear is observed.
• Handle the rasp carefully to protect its cutting surface from contact with other instruments during cleaning, transport, and storage.
• Store in a manner that keeps the rasp clean, protected, and ready for the next procedure.

General use; follow facility protocols.
