Threaded Rod With Hex Drive
The Threaded Rod With Hex Drive** is a cylindrical rod with continuous threading along its shaft, designed for connecting and adjusting components in external fixator systems such as the Ilizarov, hybrid, or limb reconstruction frames. The hex drive (usually at one or both ends) allows for easy tightening or adjustment using a hex key or wrench. This rod is used to provide linear or angular adjustments, maintain frame stability, and act as a connection element between rings, plates, clamps, or support elements. Material: Primary Material: Surgical-Grade Stainless Steel (AISI 316L) Optional: Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) for lightweight versions Surface Treatment: Polished or passivated for corrosion resistance Sterilizable and reusable
- Frame Assembly in External Fixation – Connects rings, support plates, and other elements in circular or hybrid external fixators.
- Limb Lengthening and Bone Transport – Used to adjust distance between segments during distraction osteogenesis or transport procedures.
- Deformity Correction Frames – Supports controlled movement for angular or rotational corrections.
- Trauma Fixation and Reconstruction – Provides stable support in managing complex fractures or bone defects.
- Continuous Metric Threading – Enables precise adjustments and secure connections.
- Hex Drive Head – Simplifies insertion, removal, or length adjustments using Allen key or wrench.
- High Strength and Rigidity – Withstands load-bearing stresses.
- Universal Compatibility – Connects with clamps, plates, or other modular frame components.
- Reusable and Sterile – Suitable for multiple procedures after sterilization.
