Arthrex AR-12930 Rotary Left Tip 90 Degree Punch 3.4 mm Straight Shaft

Product Description

The Arthrex AR-12930 Rotary Left Tip 90 Degree Punch 3.4 mm Straight Shaft is a premium arthroscopic cutting instrument designed to deliver exceptional precision and access during complex orthopedic procedures. Featuring a 90-degree left-angled rotary tip combined with a 3.4 mm straight shaft, this punch provides unparalleled maneuverability for reaching hard-to-access intra-articular regions. Its specialized left-rotary cutting head allows controlled tissue resection around corners, beneath overhanging structures, and along curved joint surfaces where straight punches cannot effectively reach.

Engineered specifically for advanced arthroscopy—including shoulder, knee, hip, elbow, and ankle—the AR-12930 excels in labral shaping, meniscal trimming, debridement, synovectomy, and tight-space soft-tissue resection. The angular profile enhances visualization and working angle, allowing surgeons to optimize access without excessive portal manipulation. This results in cleaner bites, minimal trauma, and superior contouring precision.

Constructed from high-grade surgical stainless steel, the AR-12930 maintains razor-sharp cutting performance through repeated sterilization cycles. Its ergonomic handle ensures stable grip, smooth mechanical action, and reduced fatigue during demanding procedures. This instrument is part of Arthrex’s advanced punch line, known for its reliability, clean bite response, and consistent clinical results.

With its combination of a left-rotating 90° punch head and streamlined 3.4 mm straight shaft, the Arthrex AR-12930 stands out as a must-have for surgeons requiring maximum versatility and corner-access capability in arthroscopic tissue management.
