6.0MM Sleeve
The Ø6.0MM Sleeve is a precision-engineered surgical sleeve used to guide Ø6.0MM drill bits, Schanz pins, or Kirschner wires during orthopedic and trauma surgeries. It is primarily employed in external fixation, fracture management, and limb reconstruction procedures, where it ensures accurate alignment and tissue protection during transcutaneous drilling or pin insertion. This sleeve is designed to be used independently or as part of a modular drill guide assembly, typically nested inside an outer sleeve or held in a clamp or guide arm. Material: Surgical Grade Stainless Steel (AISI 316L / 304) Optional variants: Titanium (for lightweight systems) High-Density Polymer (for radiolucency in imaging applications) Material Advantages: Biocompatible Rust and corrosion resistant Fully autoclavable and reusable Wear-resistant for long-term durability
- Drill Bit or Pin Alignment in External Fixation Systems – Ensures accurate trajectory and depth control during insertion.
- Soft Tissue Safety in Percutaneous Procedures – Prevents soft tissue entrapment or injury during high-speed drilling.
- Modular Orthopedic Instrumentation – Used within surgical jigs, targeting devices, or outer sleeve assemblies.
- Bone Deformity Correction and Trauma Fixation – Supports correct placement of fixation elements in complex orthopedic constructs.
- Inner Diameter – 6.0MM – optimized for Ø6.0MM drills or pins.
- Outer Diameter Compatibility – Fits inside larger guide sleeves (e.g., Ø8.0MM, Ø10.0MM).
- Precision Bore – Ensures minimal lateral play and vibration during drilling.
- Soft Tissue Protection – Prevents soft tissue damage during percutaneous operations.
- Reusable Instrument – Designed for repeated surgical use with easy sterilization.
- Available in Multiple Lengths – to match surgical site requirements.
