Description
The DePuy 292701000 Femoral Stem Impactor is a specialized orthopedic instrument designed for seating and positioning femoral stem implants during hip arthroplasty procedures.
This instrument features a solid, elongated shaft terminating in a precise engagement tip that interfaces with the femoral implant component. The proximal end includes a large cylindrical wooden handle combined with a metal striking cap, allowing the surgeon to apply controlled force using a mallet.
The wooden handle provides shock absorption and ergonomic grip, while the metal impact surface ensures efficient transfer of force during impaction. The rigid shaft enables accurate alignment and controlled seating of the implant within the prepared femoral canal.
Constructed from surgical-grade materials, this instrument is durable and designed for repeated sterilization and use in orthopedic operating environments.
