Buck Ear Curette, Bone Curette

## Product Overview

Buck Ear Curette, Bone Curette is a ear curette, bone curette listed in the Spoons and Curettes range of the Aesculap Surgical Instrument Catalog, page 1483. The catalog identifies the instrument under the BUCK pattern, which is the designation procurement teams and distributors use to identify this instrument family across suppliers. The source catalog is bilingual and prints the designation as Ear Curette, Bone Curette in English and Ohrkürette, Scharfer Löffel in German, so either term can be used when matching this item against an existing inventory or tender list. This entry represents the complete catalogued family of 5 configurations rather than a single item, so the specifications below describe the full printed range. Each configuration carries its own catalog number and is quoted separately. The family is printed in the catalog under the range OF355R-OF359R. It is classified in the catalog under Surgical Instruments > Spoons and Curettes > Ear Curette, Bone Curette.

## Design Characteristics

The following characteristics are printed for every configuration in this listing: length 150 mm, angled, blunt, rigid, and length (imperial) 6″. Overall length is printed as 150 mm (6″ imperial). The working portion is printed as angled, which is the geometry the catalog specifies for this reference. The catalog prints the working edge as blunt. The shaft is printed as rigid. The catalog prints these descriptors bilingually: angled (gewinkelt), blunt (stumpf), and rigid (starr). Characteristics that differ across the family are set out under Configuration Options below.

## Configuration Options

The family is catalogued in 5 configurations. Configurations are distinguished by diameter. Printed diameter options are 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm. Any combination not listed below is not printed in the source catalog and is therefore not offered as a catalogued configuration.

– **OF355R** — angled; blunt; rigid; size #00; length 150 mm; diameter 1.5 mm
– **OF356R** — angled; blunt; rigid; size #0; length 150 mm; diameter 2 mm
– **OF357R** — angled; blunt; rigid; size #1; length 150 mm; diameter 2.5 mm
– **OF358R** — angled; blunt; rigid; size #2; length 150 mm; diameter 3 mm
– **OF359R** — angled; blunt; rigid; size #3; length 150 mm; diameter 4 mm

Each configuration above is a separately catalogued item and can be quoted individually or as a set. Where two configurations carry identical printed specifications, the source catalog distinguishes them by catalog number only.
