Reflex hammers

Reflex hammers

Areas of application and application

Reflex hammers are used for the clinical examination of the neuromuscular system and to check tendon reflexes and motor reactions. Typical operational situations include neurological screenings, routine physical examinations and progress documentation. The instruments enable rapid, repeatable stimuli and support precise assessment and documentation of changes.

Product types and designs

There are different designs in the category: classic rubber hammers with a drop head (e.g. Taylor), multi-purpose hammers with replacement heads, reflex hammers with a metal handle for more weight and models with a built-in measuring scale or integrated diagnostic head. Compact travel models and variants with ergonomic handles for non-slip handling are also represented.

• Rubber Head Reflex Hammer (Taylor/Percussion)
• Neurological reflex hammer with metal handle
• Reflex hammer with interchangeable heads
• Compact or travel models

Materials, hygiene and handling

Made from durable materials such as stainless steel, aluminum and medical-grade rubber, the hammers are designed for cleaning and disinfection. Smooth surfaces and interchangeable heads make hygienic processes easier. Ergonomic handles reduce fatigue from repeated use and improve precision of percussion movement.

Advantages and quality features

Important features include balanced weight, durable rubber heads without deformation, secure grip and sturdy construction. Such features ensure reproducible reflex stimuli, long service life and easy maintenance. Models with variable head options increase flexibility in your daily routine.

Brands and selection

Models from manufacturers like Heine, Riester and Aesculap are available for different price ranges and quality levels. The selection depends on preference for weight, head size and cleaning requirements. When selecting the right reflex hammers, material, hand position and ability to clean are crucial criteria.
