Used Surgical Instruments - Signs of Use, Usable Condition (USED-SI):

These surgical instruments have been previously used and show visible signs of wear consistent with their prior usage. Despite these signs, they remain in a usable condition, suitable for continued medical procedures.

The Synthes 311.689 is a cannulated tap designed explicitly for 6.5 mm and 7.3 mm headless compression cannulated screws, commonly used in large bone fixation procedures. Measuring approximately 275 mm (~10 ¾ inches) in total length, it features a 200 mm tap depth, making it well-suited for deep bone applications while remaining manageable in surgical workflows.

Crafted from durable surgical-grade materials, the 311.689 incorporates a central cannulation to accommodate guide wires—maintaining precise alignment during tapping. The extended length allows surgeons to reach deep or confined anatomical sites, and the T‑handle ensures ergonomic control and reliable torque when creating internal threads. This tool is integral to the 6.5 mm & 7.3 mm cannulated screw system, as specified in Synthes's own technique guides.
