OEM Replacement Springs for Wiggins and ACE Medical Kerrison Rongeurs
ACE Medical Company and Wiggins Medical recommend only using OEM replacement spring sets for our kerrison rongeurs. We suggest inspection after during each reprocessing cycle. We recommend detailed inspection and possible replacement every six to nine months of high volume use*. Also, using the Correct OEM Spring and screws will make sure your instrument perform as you expect, with the same smooth feel of every bite.
New Features
In our efforts to always improve our product offerings we have redesigned the standard spring to give it an extended life. Next, you will notice that we have enlarged the surface area around the screw hole to make it more durable. Finally, replace with our screw driver that is specifically beveled to fit in the narrow screw head. This will give you the right amount of power without over doing it.
Why use OEM parts
Springs are not all made with the best quality, or come with the right accommodations. Many are set to different tensions to accommodate different styles of kerrison rongeurs. Most common springs will have ‘fork’ style, which can easily catch and tear a surgeons gloves. Our unique ball and cup design fits like a perfect socket. You can adjust the tension by bending the cup spring along your finger. Note- Do not bend directly against the screw head, this will lead to fatigue and possibly failure. In conclusion, using the right spring will ensure your instrument will work as expected for it’s entire life cycle.
