Bone Wire soft 1.2mm, 10m

Clinical Application

Soft 1.2 mm bone wire is used for cerclage and tension-band techniques in orthopedic and trauma surgery. Its pliability makes it suitable for encircling bone fragments, reducing and stabilizing comminuted fractures, and converting tensile forces into compression across fracture sites such as patella, olecranon, and selected long-bone applications. The 10 m spool format provides inventory flexibility for repeated case use in hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers.

Design & Configuration

The "soft" construction provides increased malleability compared with stiffer wire grades, allowing surgeons to contour the wire to irregular bone surfaces, pass it through small drill holes or around bone segments, and form compact twists for secure knotting. A 1.2 mm diameter represents a balance of handling and mechanical strength appropriate for cerclage and tension-band constructs where controlled deformation and tight twists are required to maintain reduction while minimizing bulk.

Instrument Specifications

• Diameter: 1.2 mm
• Length: 10 m spool
• Construction: soft / malleable wire for ease of contouring and twisting
• Intended use: cerclage wiring, tension-band augmentation, fragment control during fixation

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide the combination of ductility and sufficient mechanical strength required for cerclage and tension-band applications. The soft temper facilitates bending, twisting, and secure formation of wire knots while maintaining the integrity of the fixation.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.

Brand Comparison

Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
