The Jarit 230-280 (Dale) is a heavy-duty thoracic and orthopedic instrument engineered for the controlled removal of bone and tough connective tissue. Measuring 14 inches (35.5 cm) in length, this rongeur provides the extended reach and significant mechanical advantage required for deep-field procedures within the thoracic cavity or posterior spine.

Technical specifications

• Brand: Jarit

• Model: / REF: 230-280
• Overall Length: 14 Inches (35.5 cm)

Additional product details

• Manufacturer: Jarit (Integra LifeSciences)
• Product Type: Dale Thoracic Rongeur
• Bite Size: 3mm (Precision Ground)
• Operation: Manual Double-Action Lever
• Cleaning: Fully Autoclavable / Reusable
• 14-Inch Extended Reach: The elongated shaft is specifically designed to navigate deep surgical corridors, such as those encountered in postero-lateral thoracotomies or multi-level spinal fusions, keeping the surgeon's hands clear of the primary operative site.
• Double-Action Mechanical Advantage: The double-spring handle mechanism multiplies the manual squeeze force, translating it into high-torque cutting power at the 3mm tip. This significantly reduces hand fatigue during repetitive bone removal in dense cortical structures.
• 3mm Precision "Nibbling" Bite: The jaw geometry is calibrated for "fine-to-moderate" bone removal.
• Jarit Industrial Forging: Built to withstand the extreme forces of thoracic surgery, the 230-280 maintains its pivot-point alignment and cutting-edge sharpness through years of rigorous clinical use.
• Thoracic Surgery: Rib resection and trimming during thoracotomy or chest wall reconstruction.
• Spine Surgery: Decompression and bone removal in posterior lumbar or thoracic procedures.
• Orthopedic Trauma: Handling and contouring large bone fragments in complex fracture fixations.
• Cardiovascular Access: Managing boney obstacles during deep-chest surgical approaches.
• Status: Used – Good Usable Condition.
• Maintenance: This instrument shows visible signs of professional use (minor surface scuffs or cosmetic wear consistent with standard tray storage and repeated sterilization), but it remains fully functional. The 3mm jaws meet perfectly with a crisp cutting edge, the double-action spring is fluid and responsive, and the 14-inch frame is perfectly aligned.
