4.5MM Cortical Screw,Self-Tapping (Hex Head)
+ Description
The Ø4.5mm Cortical Screw, Self-Tapping (Hex Head) is a high-precision orthopedic implant designed for secure fixation in dense cortical bone.
Featuring a self-tapping tip, this screw eliminates the need for pre-tapping, simplifying surgical procedures and reducing operating time.
The hexagonal head design ensures improved torque transmission, allowing for precise insertion and removal while minimizing the risk of stripping.
+ Indications
- Designed for fracture fixation in cortical bone, including long bones such as the tibia, femur, humerus, radius, and ulna.
- Ideal for dynamic compression plating (DCP), limited contact dynamic compression plating (LC-DCP), and reconstruction plating.
- Commonly used in osteotomies and trauma surgeries, ensuring rigid stabilization and secure bone alignment.
- Suitable for revision surgeries, where enhanced fixation is required due to previous implant loosening or bone loss.
- Supports peri-prosthetic fracture repair, ensuring strong screw engagement in cortical bone.
+ Key Features
- Material: Manufactured from Stainless Steel (316L) or Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) for biocompatibility, strength, and corrosion resistance.
- Self-Tapping Tip: Allows for efficient bone penetration, eliminating the need for pre-tapping and enhancing surgical convenience.
- Hex Head Design: Provides better grip and torque control, ensuring secure fixation and easy removal when necessary.
- Optimized Thread Profile: Designed for maximum holding power in cortical bone, ensuring stable and rigid fixation.
- Low-Profile Head: Minimizes soft tissue irritation, improving patient comfort and post-operative recovery.
- Polished or Anodized Finish: Enhances biocompatibility and reduces the risk of implant-related complications.
