Overview
The Free-Falling Gravity Impactor for Rodent Injury Models is a controlled impact station for research teams planning rodent spinal cord or injury-model workflows. The source page lists a stereotaxic-device impactor path and a complete impactor package with rams and strikers.
Source extraction from catalog page 19 lists gravity impactor configurations, spinal cord kits with 1.2 mm and 2.5 mm strikers, and a complete impactor with five rams from 20 g to 100 g plus 3 mm and 5 mm strikers.
Selection Guidance
Select the configuration around animal species, target anatomy, striker size, ram weight range, and whether the lab already owns compatible stereotaxic support.
Setup Planning
Plan with stereotaxic fixation, spinal cord adaptors, anesthesia, warming, surgical instruments, recovery monitoring, and institutional model validation.

Practical Tips
Include the target species and procedure context in the quote request.
Why: Mouse and rat rodent spinal cord and controlled injury model preparation workflows may require different handling scale and support components.
Review anesthesia and animal-support equipment alongside the surgical kit.
Why: Surgical instruments are only one part of a reproducible small-animal procedure setup.
Treat exact kit contents as quote-confirmed rather than fixed from the preview page.
Why: This keeps the public listing accurate while allowing the final configuration to match the lab workflow.
Setup Guide
What’s in the Box
- Selected gravity impactor configuration
- Striker and ram set per selected configuration
- Stereotaxic support reviewed during quote
- Setup accessories confirmed before fulfillment
Warranty
Support, replacement, and fulfillment terms are confirmed with the final quote and institutional purchasing requirements.
Compliance
How are final kit contents confirmed?
Final configuration is confirmed during quote review before fulfillment.
Can I request workflow-specific configuration?
Yes. Request a quote and include the procedure, animal model, and any lab-specific instrument requirements.
How should this be used in a research workflow?
Use the listing to plan the instrument procurement side of the workflow, then match the final configuration to the lab-approved procedure, training plan, and animal-support equipment.
Can this be coordinated with anesthesia equipment?
Yes. Anesthesia and animal-support equipment can be reviewed with the kit request so the final configuration matches the planned workflow.
