Taylor Percussion Reflex Hammer — Neurological Assessment, Chrome Shaft
The deep tendon reflex arc is one of the fastest feedback loops in the human body — the reflex hammer lets you probe it in milliseconds, revealing the integrity of spinal cord pathways from L1 to S2.
The Taylor (tomahawk) design distributes the striking mass in a triangular rubber head that delivers a consistent impulse across a broad area — essential for eliciting a reliable response from the patellar, Achilles, biceps, and triceps reflexes. Chrome-plated steel shaft provides rigidity without adding dead weight; the handle is knurled for grip control. Used in every standard neurological examination.
- Taylor triangular rubber head — 58mm × 38mm striking surface
- Chrome-plated steel shaft; knurled grip handle; 185mm overall length
- Tests: patellar (L3-L4), Achilles (S1-S2), biceps (C5-C6), triceps (C7)
- Includes pin wheel and brush tip for sensory testing
