The 08-268-18 Volkmann is a 220 mm sharp handheld instrument with a 9 x 13 mm working dimension. It provides a longer reach than compact exposure instruments while keeping the working end relatively narrow. The result is a clearly defined Volkmann configuration for surgical teams that need controlled manual tissue exposure and a specific working width.
Within the 220 mm Volkmann sequence, the 9 x 13 mm size sits between the narrower 9 x 8 mm model and the wider 9 x 19 mm option. This makes the instrument easy to distinguish during tray planning and replacement ordering. The retractor can be selected when the 220 mm length and 9 x 13 mm working profile correspond to the requirements of the procedure.
* 9 x 13 mm working end: Provides a defined contact area for localized tissue exposure.
* Sharp configuration: Identifies the working profile specified for this Volkmann model.
* 220 mm length: Offers extended reach while remaining suitable for direct handheld positioning.
* Family sizing: The distinct dimensions make comparison with neighboring Volkmann patterns straightforward.
The 08-268-18 is a useful addition for hospitals, surgical centers, and medical distributors that maintain graduated Volkmann sizes. Keeping multiple working widths available allows staff to select the instrument that matches the field instead of adapting a single size to every case. Add this sharp Volkmann model to your professional surgical instrument range when its configuration meets your inventory needs. This middle-width option can be useful when a narrower or wider Volkmann pattern would not provide the preferred working profile. Its dimensions also support straightforward identification during instrument preparation and inventory review.
