Jarit 230-280 Orthopedic 3mm Bite Dale Thoracic Rongeur 14"

Jarit Dale Thoracic Rongeur | 3mm Bite | 14" Overall Length | 230-280 | Reusable

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.

The 3mm bite is precision-honed to provide a clean, aggressive "nibbling" action, allowing the surgeon to perform rib resections or vertebral decompressions with exceptional tactile feedback and minimal manual effort.

Key Specifications

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• 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. This allows for meticulous contouring of rib edges or laminal surfaces, ensuring smooth bone margins that reduce post-operative irritation to surrounding soft tissue.

• Deep-Well Debris Collection: The 3mm jaws are designed to capture and hold bone chips within the cup, preventing fragments from falling into the surgical field and facilitating easy clearing between bites.

• 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.

Applications

• 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.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• 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.

• Professional Standards: With over 25 years of experience in surgical instrumentation and hospital materials, Primis Medical ensures all heavy-duty Jarit tools are function-verified and ultrasonically cleaned prior to shipment.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in reinforced, heavy-duty packaging to ensure the 14-inch stainless steel frame and precision 3mm cutting head arrive in factory-standard condition.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
