Glabella Nasal Raspatory: Tungsten Carbide Efficiency for Bone Reshaping
The Glabella Nasal Raspatory is the preferred choice for surgeons dealing with larger bony humps that require substantial shaving. Measuring 21cm (8-1/4″) in total length, this instrument provides unparalleled surgical precision when navigating the delicate contours of the nasal root. At Adas Instruments, our manufacturing process utilizes a vacuum-hardened Tungsten Carbide inlay, which is significantly more durable than standard steel, ensuring the coarse teeth remain sharp and efficient throughout intensive reconstructive procedures.
Forged from high-grade German stainless steel and reinforced with TC, each Glabella rasp is treated with a specialized satin-matte finish to prevent glints and glare under bright operating room lights. To maintain its high performance, every unit undergoes rigorous ultrasonic cleaned protocols and a thorough passivation treatment to defend against chemical corrosion and oxidation. By utilizing these elite materials, we ensure maximum longevity of the rasp’s cutting surface, allowing for a smooth and rapid reduction of bone without causing thermal trauma to the surrounding tissue.
Care and Maintenance Section For Webster Nasal Raspatory
To preserve the integrity of the coarse Tungsten Carbide teeth, the rasp should be cleaned immediately after use with a soft-bristle brush to remove bone fragments. We recommend neutral pH detergents followed by standard autoclave cycles for sterilization. To ensure safe delivery to your surgical facility, each instrument is supplied in a protective pack. Adas Instruments provides reliable shipping via world-class couriers like DHL and FedEx, supporting surgical excellence in clinics worldwide.

The instrument has an overall length of 21cm (8-1/4 inches) and features a 6mm wide rasp tip, providing a perfect balance between power and precision.
Is the Glabella TC Rasp autoclavable?
Yes, it is manufactured from high-quality German stainless steel with TC inlays and is fully autoclavable, passivated, and ultrasonic cleaned for professional reuse.
