Penetrating gouge 7 1/2" straight 3.0mm wide blade round handle

Controlled Access for Focused Gouging Tasks

The penetrating gouge is a hand-held surgical instrument designed for focused gouging and penetrating work where a straight, narrow blade and secure handling are useful. Its 7 1/2-inch length provides practical reach, while the 3.0 mm blade width supports work in confined areas that call for a more focused working edge. The round handle offers a familiar grip for controlled manipulation during General Surgery and Orthopedic workflows. As part of the gouge instrument family, it supports deliberate tissue or material handling without adding unnecessary bulk to the operative setup.

Use Cases

• Use the 3.0 mm blade for narrow, deliberate access within the operative field.
• Apply the 7 1/2-inch length when additional reach is useful during General Surgery procedures.
