Wagner gouge 13 1/2" angled forward 15.0mm wide blade, phenolic handle

Controlled Gouging for Accessible Surgical Workflows

The Wagner gouge is a hand-held surgical instrument designed for controlled gouging and removal of material where a defined, angled cutting profile helps support access and handling. Its 13 1/2-inch length provides extended reach, while the 15.0 mm wide blade offers a broad working surface for appropriate gouging tasks. The forward-angled shape can help position the blade in relation to the working area during General Surgery and Orthopedic procedures. A phenolic handle supports a familiar manual instrument format for routine preparation, use, inspection, and reprocessing in accordance with facility protocols.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled gouging tasks requiring a 15 mm-wide working blade.
• Apply the angled-forward profile when access or instrument positioning calls for a forward-oriented gouge.
• Support orthopedic workflows involving manual gouging of hard material where this instrument size and shape are appropriate.
• Use in General Surgery settings for compatible gouging tasks requiring extended 13 1/2-inch reach.
• Select for workflows where a hand-held gouge supports direct manipulation and controlled removal.
