Italian Femoral Arch 90° Aluminum
The Italian Femoral Arch 90° – Aluminum is a precision-engineered orthopedic arch, pre-contoured to a 90° angle, designed for use in femoral external fixation systems. This arch serves as a core element in circular and hybrid frame constructs, providing strong and stable support for fracture management, limb lengthening, and deformity correction. Manufactured from high-strength, medical-grade aluminum, it is significantly lighter than steel alternatives, improving patient comfort during long-term external fixation while maintaining structural integrity. Material: Anodized or hard-coated medical-grade Aluminum Alloy (typically 6061-T6 or equivalent) Offers a combination of light weight, good strength, and corrosion resistance Finish: Smooth, anodized surface for easy cleaning and enhanced durability Fully autoclavable and reusable
- External Fixation of Femoral Fractures – Provides strong and stable support for diaphyseal and metaphyseal femoral fractures.
- Limb Lengthening & Bone Transport – Acts as a key frame component in distraction osteogenesis, allowing for controlled bone growth.
- Deformity Correction Frames – Used in valgus/varus and rotational deformity correction procedures.
- Lightweight Fixation for Pediatric or Elderly Patients – Especially beneficial for patients who require lightweight and low-profile external fixation.
- Modular Frame Construction – Easily combines with rings, rods, and adjustable struts to create custom fixator assemblies.
- 90° Pre-Bent Configuration – Allows for precise anatomical placement along the femoral contour.
- Lightweight Design – Greatly reduces the total weight of the external fixator frame.
- Rigid and Stable – Supports secure placement of Schanz screws, wires, and connecting rods.
- Multiple Mounting Holes – Strategically placed for flexible pin and rod arrangements.
- Compatible with Modular Systems – Fits seamlessly into Ilizarov and hybrid frame setups.
- Cost-Effective & Durable – A balance of performance and affordability for long-term surgical use.
