Half Ring Stainless Steel Stepless



The Stepless Stainless Steel Half Ring is a semi-circular component of a modular circular external fixator system, such as the Ilizarov apparatus. Unlike traditional half rings with predrilled holes, the stepless design features a smooth, continuous outer surface, allowing greater flexibility in placing wires or pins at any desired location or angle. This improves customization for anatomical variations, complex deformity corrections, or unique surgical approaches.
The ring provides rigid fixation, and when combined with other half rings, can form 3/4 or full ring constructs for stabilizing fractures, correcting deformities, or performing bone transport.
Material:
Composition:
Surgical Grade Stainless Steel (AISI 316L)
Known for biocompatibility, mechanical strength, and corrosion resistance
Finish:
Matte or Satin Finish to reduce glare in the OR
Autoclavable and reusable over multiple surgeries
- Complex Limb Deformity Correction – Allows precise pin or wire positioning for multi-planar angular, rotational, or translational deformities.
- Fracture Stabilization – Used in open or comminuted fractures, especially when customized wire orientation is necessary.
- Bone Transport & Limb Lengthening – Works with distraction mechanisms in segmental bone defects or gradual lengthening cases.
- Pelvic & Joint-Sparing Fixations – Ideal for areas with non-uniform anatomy, such as pelvis, where standard hole spacing isn't feasible.
- Pediatric Orthopedics – Offers adaptability for growing bones or small anatomy requiring precise wire entry angles.
- Stepless Surface – Offers freedom in pin/wire placement along the entire outer arc.
- High Rigidity – Ensures secure fixation even under dynamic loading.
- Customizable Assembly – Allows for personalized fixation geometry.
- Connectable Design – Easily joined with other ring segments (half, 3/4, full rings).
- Long-Term Durability – Designed for extended fixation periods.
- Reusable – Withstands multiple cycles of cleaning and sterilization.
- Compatible with All Standard Ilizarov Components
