Bone File #12A

The Bone File #12A is a double-ended surgical bone file designed for controlled bone filing, smoothing, and surface refinement. Its two different serrated working ends provide separate filing surfaces within one instrument, allowing the operator to select the working texture required during bone preparation.

The current Peak Surgicals model is identified as SKU PS-000017 and Millennium Number 61.644. It has an overall length of 7 inches, with 5 mm working ends and a combination of one plain-serrated end and one cross-serrated end.

Double-Ended Bone File Design

The Bone File #12A features a double-ended configuration, providing two functional working ends on the same instrument. This reduces the need to change between separate files when different serration patterns are required during bone finishing.

Each working end should be inspected before use for deformation, excessive wear, damaged serrations, or retained material that could interfere with normal filing action.

5mm Working Ends

The current Peak Surgicals specification confirms a 5 mm working-end size. The compact working profile allows the file to be positioned for controlled bone-surface refinement where a narrow bone file is required.

The 5 mm measurement is an important purchasing specification and should be considered together with the #12A pattern and 7-inch overall length when matching the instrument to an existing surgical or dental set.

Plain-Serrated Working End

One end of the Bone File #12A features a plain-serrated filing surface. This provides one of the two available bone-filing patterns incorporated into the instrument.

The plain-serrated end can be selected according to the bone surface being refined and the filing action preferred by the clinician.

Cross-Serrated Working End

The opposite end features a cross-serrated design. This gives the user a second filing pattern without changing instruments.

The two different serration configurations distinguish the #12A bone file from single-ended files or double-ended instruments using identical working surfaces at both ends.

7-Inch Overall Length

The current product page specifies an overall length of 7 inches. This provides a defined working length for manual instrument control while maintaining access to the bone surface being treated.

Hospitals, dental practices, and procurement teams can use the 7-inch measurement together with the 5 mm working-end size when identifying this exact configuration.

Dental and Surgical Bone Filing

Peak Surgicals lists Bone File #12A within its dental instrument range as well as its Bone Files & Rasps collection. The instrument is suitable for professional sets requiring a compact double-ended bone file for controlled filing and refinement of bone surfaces.

The precise method of use should be determined by the clinician according to the procedure, anatomical site, and required amount of bone refinement.

Millennium Number 61.644

The current Peak Surgicals product description provides Millennium Number 61.644 as an additional reference identifier for Bone File #12A.

This number can be useful when matching the instrument against an existing catalog specification or purchasing record.

Instrument Inspection and Reprocessing

Following clinical use, the instrument should be cleaned and reprocessed according to the applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.

Particular attention should be given to both serrated working ends, where biological material may remain between the filing surfaces. Before subsequent use, inspect the instrument for damaged serrations, deformation, corrosion, or other visible deterioration.

The current product page does not state the material grade or specific sterilization-cycle parameters, so these details should be confirmed separately when required.

Product Specifications

For Dental, Surgical and Procurement Teams

Bone File #12A is relevant for dental clinics, oral surgery services, hospitals, surgical departments, distributors, and procurement teams sourcing compact double-ended bone files.

For accurate purchasing and inventory identification, buyers can reference SKU PS-000017, Millennium Number 61.644, the 7-inch overall length, 5 mm working ends, and the plain-serrated / cross-serrated configuration. Buyers requiring material grade, handle dimensions, exact serration geometry, or sterilization specifications should confirm those details before ordering because they are not stated on the current product page.
