The Coronal Plane Rod Bender (Left) is a specialized orthopedic instrument used within the 4.75mm cobalt-chromium-molybdenum posterior thoracolumbar rod-screw system. Designed for controlled coronal rod bending during spinal deformity correction, this left-side coronal bender works with the corresponding right-side instrument to support precise rod contouring and three-dimensional correction.
Model Number: AGB06
Compatible Implants: 4.75mm CoCrMo Posterior Thoracolumbar Rod-Screw System
The Coronal Plane Rod Bender (Left) is a dedicated orthopedic instrument developed for use with the 4.75mm CoCrMo posterior thoracolumbar rod-screw system. As one of the rod-bending tools in the 4.75 Spinal Deformity Correction Instrument Set (CoCrMo), it supports controlled contouring of the spinal rod in the coronal plane.
During spinal deformity correction, the rod may require directional adjustment to correspond with the planned correction and the position of the posterior fixation construct. The left coronal bender provides a dedicated working direction for this process. It is used together with the corresponding Coronal Plane Rod Bender (Right) to support accurate coronal rod bending.
This instrument forms part of a 21-tool correction system covering the major workflow stages of pedicle screw handling, spondylolisthesis reduction, coronal rod bending, powered screw insertion and final locking. Its product identity, however, is specifically focused on coronal-plane rod contouring rather than the functions of the complete instrument set.

Dedicated Coronal-Plane Rod Contouring
This coronal plane rod bender is designed specifically for directional rod adjustment in the coronal plane. Its dedicated function helps distinguish it from screw insertion, reduction, rod pushing and final-locking instruments included in the complete spinal deformity correction set.
Left-Side Instrument Configuration
The instrument is identified as the left version of the coronal bender pair. This directional configuration allows it to work with the corresponding right coronal rod bender during controlled rod contouring. The separate Left and Right instruments support the different bending directions required within the 4.75mm correction system.
4.75mm CoCrMo System Compatibility
The Coronal Plane Rod Bender (Left) is matched to the 4.75mm CoCrMo posterior thoracolumbar rod-screw system. Stating the rod diameter and system compatibility clearly helps medical distributors and procurement teams identify the correct instrument for the corresponding implant system.
Part of a Coordinated Rod-Manipulation System
Within the complete instrument set, the left and right coronal rod benders work alongside the double-joint rod rotator. The coronal benders support rod contouring, while the rod rotator allows the orientation of the 4.75mm rod to be adjusted in a confined surgical field. Together, these instruments support the system’s sequence of rod bending and directional fine-tuning.
Stainless Steel Instrument Construction
The main instruments in this spinal correction system are manufactured from stainless steels including 05Cr17Ni4Cu4Nb, 465, 316L and 304. These materials provide the strength and corrosion resistance required by the instrument system. Electropolished surfaces help reduce surface friction and contribute to the finish of the instruments.
The Left Coronal Plane Rod Bender and Right Coronal Plane Rod Bender are two directional components of the rod-bending system. They are separately identified so that the appropriate instrument can be selected according to the required bending direction.
Used as a matched pair, the two coronal benders support controlled contouring of the 4.75mm CoCrMo spinal rod in the coronal plane. This paired arrangement also makes the product configuration easier to identify when reviewing the full instrument list or preparing the corresponding spinal deformity correction instrument set.
The Left and Right designations should therefore be retained in product names, technical documents and purchasing information. The left instrument should not be described simply as a general spinal rod bender because its direction and system compatibility are essential parts of its product identity.
The Coronal Plane Rod Bender (Left) is one component of the 4.75 Spinal Deformity Correction Instrument Set (CoCrMo). The complete set contains 21 core orthopedic tools organized around the principal stages of pedicle screw manipulation, reduction, rod bending, rod orientation and final locking.
Other instruments in the system include the pedicle screw holder, reduction ball nut, reduction plate, short and long connectors, electric screw inserters, double-joint rod rotator, rod pusher, disconnector and instrument case. These components have different functions within the complete workflow, while the current product is specifically responsible for left-direction coronal rod bending.
Pedicle Screw Handling
The pedicle screw holder features a non-slip jaw design matched to the 4.75mm system screw tulips. Electric universal and fixed screw inserters support the screw insertion stage of the complete system.
Controlled Reduction Components
The reduction ball nut and reduction plate work with the pedicle screw holder through a lever mechanism. Short and long connectors support the different reduction configurations included in the instrument system.
Rod Bending and Rotation
The Left and Right Coronal Plane Rod Benders support coronal-plane rod contouring. The double-joint rod rotator provides an additional method of adjusting the orientation of the compatible 4.75mm rod.
Rod Seating and Instrument Removal
The rod pusher has rounded chamfers in its pressing groove to support accurate seating of the 4.75mm rod into the screw tulip. The disconnector enables separation of the locked pedicle screw holder from the screw after the corresponding step has been completed.
Clear Instrument Identification
The complete product name identifies the bending plane, instrument direction and product function. This helps distinguish the Coronal Plane Rod Bender (Left) from the corresponding right bender and from other spinal instruments used for sagittal bending, rod rotation, rod pushing or screw manipulation.
Defined System Compatibility
The instrument is identified for the 4.75mm CoCrMo posterior thoracolumbar rod-screw system. This defined compatibility helps prevent confusion with the 5.5mm and 6.0/6.35mm spinal deformity correction systems available in other product ranges.
Directional Bending Support
The dedicated left configuration supports one side of the paired coronal rod-bending process. When used with the corresponding right coronal bender, it provides the directional instrument arrangement required by the 4.75mm system.
Integration with Other Correction Instruments
The product is not an isolated general-purpose tool. It is integrated with a broader group of instruments for screw handling, reduction, rod rotation, rod seating and final locking, helping maintain a coordinated instrument configuration throughout the complete system.
System-Based Instrument Organization
The complete instrument case is arranged according to the sequence of screw insertion, reduction, rod bending and locking. This organization helps users identify the Coronal Plane Rod Bender (Left) as part of the rod-bending stage rather than confusing it with the other components of the set.
The compatibility information currently provided for this product is limited to the 4.75mm CoCrMo Posterior Thoracolumbar Rod-Screw System.
