Tuning Forks
Reliable, precise instruments for neurological and hearing assessments.
Tuning forks are a simple yet essential diagnostic tool used by clinicians to evaluate vibratory sensation, peripheral neuropathy, and hearing function. Available in different frequencies, they support a range of assessments from basic neurological exams to more detailed audiological screenings. LL Medico offers dependable options from trusted names like ADC and Integra Lifesciences.
Choosing the right tuning fork depends on the type of exam being performed. Lower-frequency forks, such as the 128 Cps ADC model with weighted ends, are commonly used for vibratory sensation testing, while higher-frequency options like the 512 Cps Integra Lifesciences fork (without weight) are better suited for hearing evaluations. Both are constructed from durable aluminum alloy, offering a lightweight yet sturdy feel for repeated clinical use.
What to look for
- Frequency rating (128 Cps for vibration/neuro exams, 512 Cps for hearing tests)
- Weighted vs. non-weighted design based on intended use
- Durable, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy construction
- Comfortable grip for consistent, repeatable strikes
- Trusted manufacturing from brands like ADC and Integra Lifesciences
