Depth Gauge With Cap

The Depth Gauge with Cap is an advanced orthopedic measuring tool used for accurately determining the depth of drilled bone holes before screw placement. This instrument is vital in trauma and fixation surgeries, helping surgeons select the appropriate screw length for stable fixation and reduced postoperative complications.

Its protective cap design adds a safety layer, preventing accidental injury or probe tip damage during handling, cleaning, or sterilization.

Clinical Applications

This instrument is commonly used in:

• Orthopedic fracture fixation procedures

• Spinal implant and plating surgeries

• Trauma and reconstructive operations

• Maxillofacial surgeries

By providing precise bone depth readings, it ensures accurate screw selection, improving fixation strength and patient outcomes.

Design Advantages

• Protective Cap: Safeguards the probe and user during handling.

• Smooth Sliding Probe: Provides effortless and accurate measurements.

• Graduated Metric Scale: Ensures precision in millimeter increments.

• Ergonomic Handle: Allows stable and comfortable single-handed use.

• German Stainless Steel: Guarantees superior strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term performance.

Technical Specifications

Benefits in Orthopedic Surgery

• Ensures accurate screw length selection for stable fixation.

• Reduces risk of over-penetration or soft tissue injury.

• Protective cap improves instrument safety during use and sterilization.

• Lightweight and ergonomic for precise, one-handed operation.

• Corrosion-resistant and built for long-term reliability.

Comparison with Standard Depth Gauges

While a standard Depth Gauge provides accurate measurements, the Depth Gauge with Cap offers an added advantage of instrument protection and enhanced operator safety. The cap prevents the measuring probe from bending or damaging adjacent instruments during tray storage and sterilization cycles.

Care & Maintenance

• Rinse immediately after use to remove biological residues.

• Clean using neutral-pH detergent and soft brush.

• Ensure probe movement remains smooth; apply medical-grade lubricant as needed.

• Autoclave at recommended cycles for sterilization.

• Store with protective cap secured to prevent probe tip damage.
