Collin Mallet

Description

Collin Mallet

The Collin mallet is a balanced, general-purpose hammer for bone work. It measures 20 cm and carries a 30 mm head of about 220 g.

A classic general mallet

The Collin family of instruments is common in general surgery. This mallet follows that simple, reliable design. Therefore most teams pick it up and use it without a learning curve.

Size and weight

The mallet is 20 cm long. Its 30 mm head weighs around 220 g. So it handles medium osteotomes as well as finer chisels.

Where the Collin mallet fits

Orthopedic, oral and general surgeons all find a use for it. For example, it drives an osteotome during a bunion correction or a chisel in jaw surgery. Besides, it is a sensible first mallet for a new tray.

One mallet or two

If your tray can hold only one mallet, this mid-weight pattern is a safe choice. However, adding a heavier mallet helps for long-bone work. Furthermore, a lighter one suits very fine blades.

A good first mallet

If a new tray needs just one mallet, the Collin is a safe choice. Afterward, you can add a lighter or heavier mallet once you know your caseload. Additionally, that step-by-step approach avoids buying tools you rarely use.
