The Arthrex Difference
New product innovation in arthroscopic surgery is a primary focus at Arthrex. Our goal is to make technically
demanding procedures easier, safer and reproducible. Each instrument is precision manufactured to the highest
quality standards in the U.S. at Arthrex California, Inc.
These instruments have state-of-the-art quality, durability, a precise tactile feel and an extremely low-profile tip.
These features facilitate procedures in tight joint spaces with precision cutting edges and precise resection control.
The EDM manufacturing technology and precision stainless steel edges guarantee maximum sharpness and a long
service life. Less than 1% of all Arthrex arthroscopy instruments require resharpening after 2 years of surgical
usage – an unprecedented achievement for a fine surgical instrument in orthopedics.
Each and every hand instrument is precision manufactured to the highest quality standards. This allows us to
offer you a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship.
By purchasing an Arthrex product, you are deciding on a product from a company that is committed to ongoing
product innovation and offers you as a customer the most competent technical support available in the industry.
■■ The instrument with the largest anatomic bite (5.5 mm) and extremely
flat jaw design (2.5 mm)

safely. Various angled tips and shaft configurations allow the best possible access to different locations. Tips

use of a mallet to assist in perforation.
