Hartmann Tuning Forks: Standards in Audiometry and Neurology
The Hartmann Tuning Forks from Adas Instruments are expertly crafted for clinicians requiring consistent frequency output for sensory evaluations. These diagnostic tools are made from premium lightweight aluminum alloy, ensuring a pure tone with minimal overtones during critical Rinne and Weber hearing tests.
Exceptional Engineering & Accuracy
Manufactured from high-grade medical alloys, these tuning forks undergo precise frequency calibration to ensure they meet strict clinical tolerances. The ergonomic handle design allows for a secure grip, facilitating the subtle, controlled strikes required to initiate vibration without mechanical noise. At Adas Instruments, we prioritize 100% technical accuracy, ensuring each fork maintains its pitch even after repeated clinical use and sterilization cycles.
Surgical & Diagnostic Applications
- Audiology: Essential for differentiating between conductive and sensorineural hearing loss through standardized air and bone conduction tests.
- Neurology: Used to assess vibratory sensation (pallesthesia) in patients with suspected peripheral neuropathy or spinal cord lesions.
- General Medicine: Provides a portable, non-invasive method for rapid bedside sensory and auditory screening.
Care and Maintenance Section
To maintain frequency integrity, the forks should be stored in a protective case and cleaned with non-corrosive disinfectant wipes after each patient contact. While the alloy is durable, avoid dropping the tines on hard surfaces to prevent pitch deviation. Adas Instruments ships USA, Europe & worldwide to support specialized surgical centers with elite-tier instrumentation.
People Also Ask
What frequencies are available for Hartmann Tuning Forks?
We offer a full range of frequencies, including the most common clinical standards: C 128Hz, C 256Hz, and C 512Hz.
Is aluminum or steel better for medical tuning forks?
Aluminum forks are generally preferred for clinical use as they are lightweight and produce a longer-lasting vibration compared to steel.
Do these forks come with weights?
We provide both weighted (typically for lower frequencies like 128Hz) and unweighted versions depending on the specific diagnostic requirement.
