4.0MM Carbon Fiber Connecting Rod
+ Description
The Ø4.0MM Carbon Fiber Connecting Rod is a lightweight yet high-strength component used in external fixation systems. Designed for connecting fixation elements like clamps and half-pins, it provides rigid structural support while reducing overall frame weight. Its radiolucent property allows for clear imaging during X-ray or fluoroscopy, aiding precise surgical adjustments without rod removal. Material: Carbon Fiber Composite Core: May include reinforced polymer or hybrid composite Properties: High tensile strength Lightweight and non-corrosive Radiolucent (non-metallic—X-ray friendly) Biocompatible and autoclavable
+ Indications
- Connects clamps, rings, and rods in external fixator assemblies.
- Used in fracture management, deformity correction, limb lengthening, and orthopedic reconstructions.
- Allows for unobstructed radiographic evaluation of bone and hardware position.
- Ideal for pediatric and adult frames where weight and visibility matter.
