COTTLE Nasal Bone Rasp, T.C. 20.5cm - 8"

COTTLE Nasal Rasp, T.C. 20.5cm - 8"

Tungsten carbide simply outlasts standard steel — that's the entire case for this rasp. The COTTLE Nasal Rasp holds its cutting edge through far more procedures and sterilization cycles than a conventional steel rasp would, which matters a great deal for a practice performing rhinoplasty regularly.

Where the Real Upgrade Is

Standard steel rasps dull gradually with use, and that dulling is a genuine practical problem — particularly for high-volume practices where instrument wear from frequent use accumulates quickly. Tungsten carbide's hardness resists wear significantly longer.

20.5cm Covers the Full Dorsum

Reach along the entire dorsal length, from radix to supratip, supports comprehensive contouring in one instrument — suited to straightforward dorsal hump reduction and the more nuanced adjustments that revision rhinoplasty often calls for.

Same Performance, New or Well-Used

Because tungsten carbide resists dulling, the rasping performance a surgeon gets on day one closely matches what they get after extended use — no gradual need for extra passes or more forceful application to compensate for a dulling edge.

The Math Works Out Over Time

Tungsten carbide instruments cost more upfront than standard steel. For practices performing rhinoplasty often, the extended service life and consistent performance frequently make this the more economical choice over the instrument's full working life.
