256 Hz Gardiner Brown Medical Tuning Fork Kit – Reflex Hammer or Activator, Case Option – Vibration & Hearing Test

A medical examination kit built around a 256 Hz Gardiner Brown tuning fork. 256 Hz is widely used to check vibration sense in neurological examinations and is also used in hearing assessments such as the Rinne and Weber tests. Each fork is individually tuned for a clear, steady tone, and the satin stainless steel finish is easy to wipe clean.

The Gardiner Brown pattern has a sturdy stem and a flat foot that sits firmly on a bony point, the mastoid or the forehead during examination. Choose the kit with a medical reflex hammer for checking reflexes, or with a tuning fork activator – a heavy-duty rubber striking disc that starts the vibration cleanly without marking the prongs. Each kit is available with or without a black zip carry case.
