Penner Nail Instrument

Description

Penner Nail Instrument

The Penner nail instrument is a 15 cm hand tool of the Penner pattern. It serves nail work on fingers and toes, and we confirm its tip before shipping.

Penner nail instrument length

A 15 cm body gives a little more reach than our shorter patterns. Meanwhile, it stays light. As a result, it suits both finger and toe work.

Limited listing data

Our records name the pattern and length only. Because of that, we check the tip shape with you first. A quick photo usually answers the question.

Who uses the Penner nail instrument

Foot care clinics often need tools for toenail work. Also, hand units and emergency rooms treat nail injuries. Minor surgery lists may include it.

Gentle technique

Support the finger or toe firmly before you start. Then work the tip forward in short, slow moves. Stop if the patient feels sharp pain and reassess.

Toes and fingers

Toenails are thicker and harder than fingernails. So a slightly longer tool can help with leverage. Even so, gentle force is still the rule.

Building a small nail kit

A good kit holds a few nail tools of different lengths. Then the clinician can pick the best fit for each case. Ask us to help you choose.
