Synthes 202.836 2.7mm cortex screw self-tapping 36mm orthopedic hardware

Synthes 202.836 2.7mm cortex screw self-tapping 36mm orthopedic hardware

As a 2.7mm diameter screw with a significant 36mm length, it is an specialized component of the Synthes Small Fragment and Mini-Fragment LCP (Locking Compression Plate) sets. This screw is engineered to provide stable, bicortical fixation in mid-sized bones or for "cross-bone" stabilization in the hand, foot, and distal radius where standard mini-fragment lengths are insufficient.

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: 36 mm (Extra-Long Variant)
• Thread Pitch: 1.0 mm
• Core Diameter: 1.9 mm
• Head Type: 5.0 mm Spherical Head with Small Hexagonal Socket
• Quantity: Individually Packaged, Sterile
• It allows for secure engagement of both cortical walls, which is essential for rotational stability.
• High-Torque Hex Drive: The small hexagonal recess is designed to transmit precise torque without the risk of "cam-out." This is particularly important for the 202.836, as the longer thread interface generates more friction during the final seating of the screw.
• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Cold-worked for high fatigue strength, the material is biologically inert and designed to maintain its mechanical properties throughout the biological stages of bone healing.
• Hand & Wrist Surgery: Long-segment fixation of metacarpal fractures or corrective osteotomies requiring deep purchase.
• Foot & Ankle Surgery: Stabilization of metatarsal shaft fractures or midfoot fusions where 36mm of depth is required to reach the far cortex.
• Trauma Surgery: Fixation of cortical fragments in the distal radius or fibula where an oblique "lag" trajectory requires extra length.
• Mini-Fragment Plating: Used as a neutralization or compression screw within 2.7mm plating constructs in larger bone fragments.
• 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.
