Miltex® Tromner Percussion Hammer
9-3/4" (247mm) | Light Model | Hollow Handle

The Miltex® Tromner Percussion Hammer is a precision-crafted neurological diagnostic instrument designed to help clinicians efficiently and accurately assess deep tendon and superficial reflexes. Built to support comprehensive neurological examinations, this percussion hammer features both large and small rubber tips to elicit myotatic, cutaneous, and plantar responses with minimal effort and greater patient comfort.

The hollow tapered handle provides a balanced, ergonomic grip that reduces hand fatigue during extended examinations. A retractable brush is integrated into the handle for convenient elicitation of cutaneous and plantar responses, eliminating the need for a separate instrument and streamlining the neurological assessment process.

The chrome-pointed tip at the base of the handle allows for precise sensory testing, making this a versatile all-in-one diagnostic tool. Manufactured in Germany to Miltex® quality standards, this percussion hammer is well-suited for use in hospitals, neurology clinics, general practice offices, rehabilitation centres, and medical education settings.
