5/8th Ring -Carbon Fibre
The 5/8th Ring – Carbon Fibre is a semi-segmented external fixator ring representing five-eighths (5/8) of a full circle, used in circular frame systems for complex orthopedic procedures such as fracture stabilization, limb lengthening, and deformity correction. This configuration allows partial support with open access, improving surgical flexibility and patient comfort. Made from high-strength carbon fiber composite, the ring is both ultra-lightweight and radiolucent, providing clear X-ray and CT imaging without removal or repositioning. It is ideal for use where frequent imaging and lightweight frame designs are crucial—especially in pediatric, geriatric, or long-term cases. Material Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Exceptionally strong, lightweight, and radiolucent Surface: Smooth, non-glare matte finish Fully biocompatible, autoclavable, and resistant to corrosion
- Circular External Fixation Systems – Used in Ilizarov-style frames for complex limb reconstruction, correction, and lengthening.
- Fracture Stabilization – Offers firm support with partial access to wounds or surgical sites—ideal for open injuries or infections.
- Imaging-Intensive Cases – Perfect for patients requiring regular radiographic evaluation (X-ray, CT) during healing.
- Pediatric & Geriatric Orthopedics – Ideal for patients needing low-weight constructs for better comfort and reduced mechanical strain.
- Custom Frame Configurations – Can be combined with other ring segments (half, 3/4, full) for tailored fixation solutions.
- Lightweight Design – Reduces patient burden and enhances mobility.
- Radiolucency – Enables unobstructed imaging during follow-ups or intra-op.
- Modular Shape (5/8 Ring) – Offers partial limb coverage while maintaining frame integrity.
- Pre-Drilled Holes – Compatible with standard wire and pin fixation.
- Durable Construction – Resistant to fatigue, cracking, and wear over time.
- Compatible with Standard Ilizarov Systems – Can be integrated with carbon, aluminum, or stainless components.
- Patient-Friendly – Low profile, thermally neutral, and non-metallic feel.
