CrCoMo Rod Cutter for Spinal Fixation System

General Description

The Rod Cutter for Spinal Fixation System is a lightweight, high-precision surgical instrument specifically designed for cutting spinal connecting rods used in posterior fixation procedures. Constructed from medical-grade stainless steel with ergonomic polymer handles, this device ensures efficient and accurate rod cutting during spinal stabilization surgeries.

With a compact size (Length: 17 cm, Width: 8 cm, Height: 14.5 cm) and a net weight of only 1.67 kg, the instrument offers excellent maneuverability and portability in the operating room. It is capable of cutting titanium and cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CrCoMo) rods with diameters of Ø3.5, Ø4.75, Ø5.0, Ø5.5, Ø6.0, and Ø6.35 mm, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of spinal fixation systems.

This instrument combines cutting-edge mechanical design with strong cutting efficiency, ensuring minimal deformation of the rod ends and optimal precision in every cut. The design is optimized for modern spinal procedures and provides long-lasting performance through repeated sterilization cycles.
 

Features

• Made of high-strength medical stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance.
• Ergonomic dual-handle design with non-slip polymer grips for comfortable operation.
• Lightweight and compact: 1.67 kg total weight, ideal for intraoperative handling.
• Cuts rods made of both titanium alloy and CrCoMo alloy efficiently and precisely.
• Minimal rod-end deformation after cutting, preserving implant integrity.
• Quick and smooth cutting action through optimized mechanical leverage.
• Fully autoclavable and reusable with long service life.

Intended Use

This instrument is used for cutting spinal fixation rods of various diameters during posterior spinal stabilization procedures, including deformity correction, fusion, and reconstruction surgeries.

Indications

• Posterior spinal fixation procedures
• Scoliosis or kyphosis correction
• Degenerative spine conditions requiring stabilization
• Spinal trauma, fracture, or tumor resection reconstruction
• Revision spinal instrumentation procedures

Contraindications

• Presence of infection at the surgical site
• Use in procedures where rod implantation is contraindicated
• Patients with conditions that preclude spinal fixation
• Incompatibility with rods outside the specified diameter range
