Axial Connector | Titanium
+ Description
An Axial Connector is a specialized spinal fixation component designed to link two rods that intersect at an angle, rather than lying in parallel. It enables surgeons to create multi-planar spinal constructs, making it ideal for complex deformity corrections, osteotomy support, and construct extensions that require angulated rod paths.
Constructed from medical-grade titanium or cobalt-chrome, axial connectors feature a pivoting or rotational joint mechanism that allows angular adjustment during placement, ensuring secure fixation between non-parallel rods.
+ Indications
- Spinal Deformity Correction (e.g., scoliosis, kyphosis with angular rod transitions)
- Osteotomy Stabilization in areas requiring rod convergence
- Hybrid Construct Formation with variable rod orientations
- Spinal Tumor Reconstruction requiring atypical fixation trajectories
- Revision Surgeries involving rod extension at angles
- Need to connect rods at an angle due to spinal anatomy or surgical plan
- When axial (non-parallel) support is required across vertebral segments
- In procedures where direct in-line rod continuation is not possible
- To enable angular alignment across transitional zones (thoracolumbar, lumbosacral)
+ Key Features
- Angled Rod Connection : Connects two rods positioned at variable angles (not parallel) Allows for multi-directional fixation and construct customization
- Rotational or Pivot Mechanism : Facilitates intraoperative angulation and alignment adjustment Supports anatomical variation and complex surgical techniques
- Universal Rod Compatibility : Fits standard rod diameters (e.g., 5.5 mm, 6.0 mm, 6.35 mm) Compatible with most spinal systems
- Secure Locking Design : Dual or single locking screws ensure robust rod fixation Prevents construct loosening under dynamic spinal loads
- Low-Profile, High-Strength Design : Minimizes implant prominence and soft tissue interference Provides durable support for high-load areas
- High-Quality Materials : Titanium or CoCr alloy for biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and imaging compatibility
- ISO & CE Certified Manufacturing : Compliant with international safety and quality standards for spinal implants
