Hibbs Bone Gouge Curved 13.0 mm Blade 23.5 cm (9.2)

Controlled Reach for General and Orthopedic Gouging

The Hibbs gouge is a hand-held surgical gouge designed for controlled removal or shaping of bone during applicable general surgery and orthopedic procedures. Its curved 13.0mm-wide blade supports access along contoured working areas, while the 9 1/4-inch length provides useful reach within the operative field. The hexagonal handle offers a defined gripping surface for steady instrument positioning and directional control during manual work. As a practical addition to an instrument set, this gouge supports repeatable handling across routine surgical workflows where a curved, broad working edge is appropriate.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled gouging or shaping of bone in applicable general surgery procedures.
• Support orthopedic procedures requiring a curved gouge profile and 13.0mm-wide working blade.
• Use the 9 1/4-inch length to help reach working areas where additional instrument length is useful.
• Position and manipulate the instrument using the hexagonal handle for a defined manual grip.
• Incorporate into surgical instrument sets for tasks requiring a curved gouge rather than a straight profile.
