CENTERFACE™ Fixation Full-pins,
Cancellous Thread Profile
IMEX™ CENTERFACE™ fixation full-pins with cancellous thread profile feature a deep thread with larger thread pitch than standard thread CENTERFACE™ fixation full-pins. These pins have proven particularly effective in metaphyseal bone application where adequate bone stock is present to support the increased thread diameters. Acceptable locations include the proximal tibia and the distal femur only. Pre-drilling is very important. These pins are contraindicated in diaphyseal bone, in the radius or ulna, and in the hard bone of the humeral condyle.
NOTE: 21316 and 2131L have larger shanks than corresponding large KE standard thread profile pins.
All CENTERFACE™ fixation full-pins are produced from the highest quality, implant grade 316LVM stainless steel.
All can be utilized with IMEX™ SK™ ESF System, KE devices, acrylic frames, or KE-like devices.
Rarely is more than one cancellous pin used per long-bone fracture.
