Buy Osteosynthesis Wire 1.7 mm with 15 mm Thread and Trocar Point
Implant 1.7 mm in diameter with a 15 mm thread, indicated for reduction and fixation of metaphyseal fractures, stable load-bearing fracture fixation and temporary intraoperative fixation and reduction of fragments. Implant steel 1.4441, chemically passive and non-magnetic on the surface.
Intermediate gauges like this one are not chosen lightly: they are asked for when the one below has failed by bending and the one above will not go in without compromising the cortex. Having it in the catalogue avoids the compromise. Five lengths, from 150 to 250 millimetres.
Supplied non-sterile, so the hospital can process it in its own autoclave cycle along with the rest of the instrument set. It is a single-use device: it is not reprocessed once implanted.
