The Calcaneal Spreader 6mm Blade is a compact orthopedic surgical instrument designed for controlled spreading and manipulation during foot and ankle procedures involving the calcaneus. Its angled 6 mm serrated blade provides a defined working surface, while the integrated through-hole allows compatible wire to pass through the blade during procedures requiring guided positioning or fixation.
The current Peak Surgicals model is identified as SKU PS-Or_0013. It measures 3 3/4 inches overall, is manufactured from surgical stainless steel, and is designed with a through-hole that accommodates wire up to 1.3 mm (0.051 inch) in diameter.
The working end incorporates an angled 6 mm serrated blade. The serrated surface is designed to provide controlled engagement with the selected bone or tissue surface during spreading and manipulation.
The 6 mm blade width is also an important identifying specification when selecting the instrument for an orthopedic set. Before use, the serrated working surface should be inspected for deformation, wear, retained debris, or other damage that could interfere with normal function.
A key feature of this model is the through-hole incorporated into the working blade. According to the current Peak Surgicals listing, the opening accommodates wire with a maximum diameter of 1.3 mm (0.051 inch).
This configuration allows compatible guide wires or K-wires to be used in conjunction with the instrument where wire positioning forms part of the orthopedic procedure. The selected wire diameter and technique should be confirmed by the surgeon before use.
The Calcaneal Spreader has a confirmed overall length of 3 3/4 inches. Its compact configuration provides close manual control within localized foot and ankle operative fields while maintaining the leverage required for controlled spreading.
This measurement distinguishes the model from longer calcaneal spreaders and should be checked when purchasing or assembling a specialized orthopedic instrument set.
The current product information identifies calcaneal fracture reduction and fixation among the applications of this spreader. During fracture-management procedures, controlled spreading may assist the surgeon while positioning bone fragments and preparing the area for the selected fixation technique.
The exact method of use depends on fracture configuration, surgical exposure, fixation strategy, and associated instrumentation. Clinical use should therefore be determined by an appropriately trained orthopedic surgeon.
The instrument is designed for orthopedic foot and ankle surgery, particularly procedures involving the heel bone. The current Peak Surgicals listing also references reconstructive procedures involving the calcaneus.
The short instrument body, angled serrated blade, and wire through-hole provide a specialized configuration for situations where controlled access and manipulation are required around the calcaneal region.
The product page specifically references the placement of K-wires and guide wires. The integrated blade opening permits compatible wire to pass through the working end while the instrument is positioned within the surgical field.
The page specifies a maximum wire diameter of 1.3 mm. Wire selection should therefore remain within the stated capacity and should also match the requirements of the surgical technique and associated fixation system.
The Calcaneal Spreader 6mm Blade is manufactured from surgical stainless steel. The metallic construction provides the rigidity required for an orthopedic spreading instrument and supports repeated professional cleaning and sterilization.
The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the current product page. Hospitals, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a particular alloy designation or material certificate should confirm those details before ordering.
The current product information identifies this calcaneal spreader as a reusable surgical instrument and references standard autoclave sterilization. Cleaning and reprocessing should be performed according to the applicable manufacturer's instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.
Particular attention should be given to the serrated blade and through-hole during cleaning. Before reuse, inspect the working end, wire passage, shaft, and complete instrument for retained debris, corrosion, deformation, or visible damage.
