Synthes 202.808 2.7mm Cortex Screw Self Tapping 8mm

Synthes 202.808 2.7mm Cortex Screw Self Tapping 8mm

As a 2.7mm diameter screw with a low-profile 8mm length, it is a foundational component of the Synthes Small Fragment and Mini-Fragment LCP (Locking Compression Plate) sets. This screw is engineered to provide stable fixation for fractures in regions with limited bone depth, such as the hand, foot, and distal radius.

Additional product details

• The Self-Tapping distal tip features precision-machined cutting flutes that carve a matching thread path as the screw is advanced into a 2.0mm pilot hole.
• Manufacturer: Synthes (DePuy Synthes)
• Screw Diameter: 2.7 mm
• Thread Profile: Self-Tapping / Fully Threaded
• Screw Length: 8 mm
• Thread Pitch: 1.0 mm
• Core Diameter: 1.9 mm
• Head Type: 5.0 mm Head with Small Hexagonal Socket
• Quantity: Individually Packaged, Sterile
• Small Hexagonal Drive: The small hexagonal recess is designed to transmit the precise torque required to seat a 2.7mm screw without the risk of "cam-out" or stripping the screw head, even in high-density cortical bone.
• Monocortical Versatility: At 8mm, this screw is frequently used for monocortical fixation or for anchoring plates in thin bone structures where a longer screw would risk penetrating adjacent joints or soft tissue structures.
• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Cold-worked for high fatigue strength, the material is biologically inert and designed to maintain its mechanical properties throughout the healing process.
• Hand & Wrist Surgery: Fixation of metacarpal and phalangeal shaft fractures or small-bone osteotomies.
• Foot & Ankle Surgery: Stabilization of metatarsal fractures and hallux valgus corrections where bone depth is minimal.
• Trauma Surgery: Fixation of small bone fragments in the distal radius or malleolar regions.
• Mini-Fragment Plating: Used as a compression or neutralization screw within 2.7mm plating constructs.
• Status: NEW — Factory Sealed & Sterile.
• Integrity: This implant is securely packaged within its original manufacturer's sterile peel-pouch. The packaging is intact, ensuring the product's sterility, material integrity, and full lot traceability for clinical implantation in 2026.
