Also called Surgical Hammer · Bone Mallet
The head is cast from lead rather than steel, giving a heavier, softer-impact strike from a smaller head than an equivalent steel-headed mallet.
A surgical mallet is a striking instrument: a cylindrical head fixed to a handle. The head is either solid stainless steel, or a steel or lead-filled core carrying replaceable nylon or plastic face caps, so the striking face can be swapped without replacing the whole mallet. Handles are commonly knurled or fluted where they are gripped. It is ordered by three numbers (head diameter, head weight, and overall length), and head material is what lets two mallets of the same length carry very different weights.

True of every order
Instruments are marked to the buyer's requirement (TGI, unmarked, or the buyer's own brand), agreed on the order.
Customized packaging is part of what TGI supplies. Your own printed boxes, your labels, your brand on the pack, or plain export packing, whichever your market needs. The packing for your order is agreed with you and confirmed on the order.
Manufactured under the quality management system covered by TGI's ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 certificates. Certificate numbers and the issuer's registry are on the certification page. Open the certificates
Every batch of steel is ordered to a specified grade and arrives with the mill's own certificate, which identifies the mill and states the grade. TGI checks the material at the factory against its own requirement before it goes into production. That check is TGI's own inspection, not an independent laboratory test.
TGI manufactures in its own factory in Sialkot and also supplies articles made by contracted partner workshops, to TGI's specification. Which applies to a given article is confirmed on your order.
