28.5cm 11 1/4″ to bend straight and angled
Article 11-1734-28 Universal Rod Bender provides a longer 28.5 cm, or 11 1/4 inch, working format for bending both straight and angled rods. Compared with a shorter hand instrument, this extended length can provide the operator with greater reach during rod contouring while keeping the bending task centered on a dedicated instrument. It is a useful addition to bone surgery instruments used for orthopedic fixation preparation.
The product page confirms its universal rod-bending role and specifies an overall length of 28.5 cm.
Universal rod bender
Length: 28.5 cm
Equivalent length: approximately 11 1/4 inches
For straight and angled rods
Rod contouring often requires incremental adjustment rather than a single forceful bend. A dedicated bender gives the surgeon a controlled interface for making those changes while maintaining a consistent hand position. The longer format can also be useful when additional working reach is needed around a larger operative field.
This instrument is suited to fixation workflows where rods must be adapted before or during construct assembly. It can sit alongside rod holders, screwdrivers, reduction instruments, and other implant-handling tools in a well-organized orthopedic tray.
The manufacturer page does not provide material, surface treatment, or sterilization information, so those specifications should be confirmed with Next Edge Surgical before procurement.
For facilities working with varied rod configurations, this universal pattern can provide useful flexibility during implant preparation.
