Additional product details

• Unlike partially threaded "lag" screws, the fully threaded design is engineered for positional fixation.
• Manufacturer: Synthes (DePuy Synthes)
• Thread Type: Fully Threaded
• Cannulation: 1.75 mm (Compatible with 1.6mm Guide Wires)
• Drive Type: 3.5 mm Large Hexagonal Socket
• Features: Self-Drilling, Self-Tapping, Cannulated
• Quantity: 1 Each
• Guided Precision: The 1.75mm internal bore allows the screw to be delivered over a pre-placed 1.6mm guide wire. This allows the surgeon to confirm the trajectory via fluoroscopy before the screw is seated, enabling minimally invasive percutaneous placement and reducing surgical trauma.
• It acts as a "neutralization" device, protecting the fracture from shear and rotational forces during the healing process.
• Self-Drilling & Self-Tapping Tip: The distal tip features precision-machined cutting flutes that eliminate the need for separate drilling and tapping steps in most cancellous bone applications.
• Ankle & Foot Surgery: Fixation of malleolar fractures, calcaneal osteotomies, and subtalar or midfoot fusions.
• Trauma Reconstruction: Positional stabilization of large metaphyseal fragments in the proximal or distal tibia.
• Pelvic & Acetabular Surgery: Providing stable anchorage in pelvic ring disruptions where a 4.5mm diameter offers the necessary shear strength.
• Pediatric Orthopedics: Precise fixation of epiphyseal fractures (Salter-Harris) where the guide wire protects the growth plate during planning.
• Status: NEW — Factory Sealed.
• Integrity: This implant is securely housed within its original manufacturer's packaging. Both inner and outer seals are intact, ensuring full material integrity and suitability for clinical use in 2026.
