Depth gauges are critical to measure the exact depth of a drilled hole in a bone, ensuring use of correct screw length. After drilling, the probe is inserted until the hook engages in the far cortex, the sliding collar is then advanced to the near cortex. Metric ruler at end identifies length of screw required (Premium slim designs measurement starts at 0mm - while other options require a minor calculation adjustment). Stainless Steel - autoclavable (comes apart in 3 parts for cleaning). Available in sizes to match screw systems - Screw max length as follows: 1.5/2.0mm & 2.0/2.7mm - 40mm All other sizes - 60mm Show more
