The Obwegeser Type Zygomatic Arch Awl is a specialized craniomaxillofacial surgical instrument used for controlled passage of wire or suture material around the zygomatic arch. The Obwegeser pattern is associated with circumzygomatic wiring and maxillofacial suspension techniques where a dedicated long awl is required to guide material around the zygomatic structure.
The current Peak Surgicals product is manufactured from German stainless steel and is listed as a reusable surgical instrument. The live storefront displays SKU PS-O T-01081, while the product specification section separately lists Model Number PS-6711; this identifier discrepancy should be confirmed before final procurement or catalog use.
The Obwegeser pattern is designed specifically for work around the zygomatic arch. Its awl configuration provides a dedicated pathway for guiding wire or suture material around this anatomical structure during appropriate oral and maxillofacial procedures.
The exact working-tip design, tip diameter, shaft curvature, eyelet dimensions, and overall length of the current Peak Surgicals model are not stated on the live product page. Buyers requiring these measurements should therefore confirm the selected Size configuration before ordering.
Established craniomaxillofacial surgical-instrument catalogs identify the Obwegeser Zygomatic Arch Awl for passing wires around the zygomatic arch. This technique is associated with circumzygomatic wiring and surgical suspension procedures involving the maxillofacial skeleton.
The exact wire type, diameter, placement technique, and operative indication should be determined by the oral and maxillofacial surgeon according to the procedure and fixation plan.
The Obwegeser Zygomatic Arch Awl belongs to the instrument family used in oral and craniomaxillofacial surgery. It is particularly relevant to surgical sets that include specialized wiring instruments for procedures involving the zygomatic arch, maxilla, and related facial skeletal structures.
The current Peak Surgicals description itself does not provide a detailed procedure list, so procedure-specific applications beyond the established Obwegeser pattern should not be assigned without further documentation.
Reference catalogs for the Obwegeser zygomatic arch pattern identify its use in procedures where circumzygomatic wires may be used as part of maxillary suspension or related maxillofacial stabilization techniques.
The appropriate suspension method, wire position, fixation points, and surgical approach remain dependent on the patient's anatomy and the operative technique selected by the surgeon.
The current Peak Surgicals product specification confirms German stainless steel construction. The rigid metallic design provides the structure required for a reusable surgical awl used during controlled wire-placement procedures.
The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the current product page. Hospitals, maxillofacial centers, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a particular material designation or supporting certificate should confirm that specification before ordering.
Peak Surgicals specifically identifies the Obwegeser Type Zygomatic Arch Awl as reusable. The instrument should therefore be cleaned, inspected, and reprocessed according to the applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.
Before subsequent use, the tip, shaft, working end, and handle should be examined for deformation, corrosion, surface damage, blockage of any wire-guiding opening, or other conditions that could interfere with normal function.
The live Peak Surgicals storefront provides a Size selector, indicating that selectable configurations are available for this instrument.
However, the exact size values are not exposed in the current product information. Other manufacturers offer Obwegeser zygomatic arch awls in defined lengths, but those measurements should not be applied to this Peak Surgicals model without direct confirmation.
The current Peak Surgicals specification lists satin, dull, and mirror finish options. These provide different surface-finish choices for hospitals, surgical centers, distributors, and buyers matching an existing instrument inventory.
The required finish should be confirmed when placing an order if a particular surface treatment is needed.
