Surgical mallet head

32 devices · GMDN 46976

A surgical mallet head is a replaceable component designed to fit onto the end of surgical mallets and hammers, used in orthopedic and spinal procedures. These devices deliver controlled force during procedures like bone reduction, fracture fixation, or spinal instrumentation, where precision and durability are critical.

These heads are typically reusable and made from synthetic polymers to ensure strength and resistance to wear. They are secured to the mallet via threaded connections and must meet safety standards for surgical use, including non-splintering and biocompatibility requirements.
