Vicker Mallet With Interchangeable Plastic Disks Pair of Spare Disks

The Vicker plastic disk mallet has a head that takes replaceable plastic disks. This listing includes a pair of spare disks, so worn faces can be swapped quickly.

Why plastic faces

A plastic disk softens the impact on the instrument handle. So it protects osteotome tops from mushrooming. It also makes the blow quieter and less jarring for the hand.

Size and weight

The mallet is about 18 cm long and weighs around 300 g. Its head measures 25 mm across. That makes it a mid-weight tool for general bone work.

Who uses a Vicker plastic disk mallet

Orthopedic and oral surgeons use it with chisels and gouges. It is especially helpful when instruments have delicate handles. Teams also like the lower noise in the theater.

Swapping the disks

When a disk becomes chipped or flattened, replace it with a spare. Then the mallet strikes evenly again. Keep the spare pair in the tray so changes take seconds.

Instrument protection

Hard steel faces can mushroom the top of an osteotome over time. In contrast, plastic disks spread the force and leave handles smooth. As a result, both the mallet and the instruments last longer.
