Screws & Wires

Fixation Elements are offered in diameters from 1.6mm to 3.0mm, in lengths from 60mm to 125mm, are made of 316L stainless steel, and are available with and without hydroxyapatite (HA) coating.

3.0mm Bone Screws (Uncoated)

Bone Screws with diameters of 3.0mm have a self-drilling and self-tapping tip and do not require predrilling. The two-diameter geometry ensures balanced stresses on the two cortices. They are available in lengths of 60mm, 80mm and 100mm.

  • M735    Bone Screw 3.0 mm X 60mm long, 20mm thread
    M736    Bone Screw 3.0 mm X 80mm long, 20mm thread
    M737    Bone Screw 3.0 mm X 100mm long, 20mm thread

When the Bone Screw is inserted, the self-drilling tip creates a hole the size of the smaller diameter. The first self-tapping section of the screw taps and removes the bone facilitating the insertion of the smaller diameter part of the screw into the bone. The second set of self-tapping threads facilitates the larger diameter threads to enter into the cortex. The larger diameter is inserted revising any ovalization caused by the smaller diameter section of the screw.

3.0mm Bone Screws (HA-Coated)

The HA-coated bone screws are fully coated (up to the first reference notch) and are available in lengths of 60mm and 80mm.
