Additional product details

• By distributing the axial load across a broader area of the bone surface, this washer reduces the risk of local bone necrosis and secondary loss of fixation, making it a critical component for lag-screw techniques and fragment stabilization.
• Manufacturer: Synthes (DePuy Synthes)
• Internal Diameter: Compatible with 3.5mm and 4.5mm screw shafts
• Outer Diameter: 7.0 mm
• Profile: Low-profile, contoured edges
• Quantity: Individually Packaged, Sterile
• This is essential when applying lag-screw compression in metaphyseal bone or in patients with compromised bone density, where the screw head might otherwise "pull through" the cortex.
• Low-Profile Contouring: The washer features a slim vertical profile and radiused edges.
• Universal Small-Fragment Compatibility: The internal diameter is precisely calibrated to accept the neck of both 3.5mm and 4.5mm screws, allowing it to be used interchangeably across several Synthes sets, including the Small Fragment and Basic Fragment systems.
• Ligament/Tendon Reattachment: Used in conjunction with a screw to anchor soft tissue or bony avulsions (e.g., medial collateral ligament repairs).
• Pediatric Orthopedics: Spanning wider areas of the thin pediatric cortex during fracture stabilization.
• 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.
