Cloward Style Periosteal Elevator – #3

The Cloward Style Periosteal Elevator – #3 is a precision neurosurgical and spinal instrument designed for controlled periosteal elevation, soft tissue reflection, and clean separation of tissue from bone surfaces. Based on the classic Cloward design, this #3 size offers a balanced working profile that delivers both strength and precision for a wide range of spinal and cranial surgical procedures. This instrument is specifically engineered to provide reliable tissue dissection with minimal trauma. The curved Cloward-style blade allows surgeons to access deep and confined anatomical spaces, making it highly effective for spinal exposure and neurosurgical applications where accuracy and control are critical. The #3 size provides a medium working surface, offering an ideal balance between delicate fine-tip elevators and broader heavy-duty versions. This makes it versatile for both initial periosteal elevation and continued tissue reflection during surgery. Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument ensures excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term performance. It is fully autoclavable and designed to withstand repeated sterilization cycles while maintaining structural integrity and sharpness. The ergonomically designed handle provides a secure and comfortable grip, enhancing control during delicate surgical procedures. Its balanced weight distribution reduces hand fatigue and improves precision during extended operations. The mirror-polished finish reduces friction and prevents tissue adhesion, allowing smoother dissection and improved surgical visibility. This ensures clean periosteal reflection with reduced risk of soft tissue injury. Overall, the Cloward Style Periosteal Elevator – #3 is a dependable and essential instrument for neurosurgeons and spinal surgeons who require precision, durability, and controlled performance in periosteal elevation procedures.
