Synthes 292.72 1.6mm Threaded Guide Wire 150mm

Synthes 292.72 1.6mm Threaded Guide Wire 150mm

With a 1.6mm diameter and 150mm length, this guide wire acts as the "pathfinder" for the surgical construct. Its primary function is to establish and maintain the exact mechanical axis for drilling, measuring, and final screw insertion, allowing for a minimally invasive approach to bone fixation.
