Hibbs Bone Gouge Curved 25.0 mm Blade 23.5 cm (9.2)

Controlled Gouging with Practical Reach and Grip

The Hibbs gouge is a hand-held surgical instrument used for controlled gouging and removal of bone or other hard material where a curved cutting profile is useful. Its 9 1/4-inch length provides practical reach, while the 25.0mm-wide blade supports work across a broader surface area. The curved blade shape can help align the instrument with the working field, and the hexagonal handle offers a defined hand-contact profile for controlled handling. Suitable for general surgery and orthopedic workflows, this gouge supports deliberate preparation and contouring tasks while fitting naturally into established instrument-handling and reprocessing protocols.

Use Cases

• Support controlled gouging and removal of hard material during general surgery procedures.
• Use the curved blade profile for orthopedic preparation and contouring tasks where the working surface benefits from a curved instrument.
• Apply the 25mm-wide blade when a broader gouging contact area is appropriate to the task.
• Use the 9 1/4-inch instrument length when practical reach within the operative field is needed.
• Handle through the hexagonal grip profile to support deliberate positioning and controlled instrument movement.
