Guide Pin for Intramedullary nail 2.5mm, 35cm

Clinical Application

This guide pin is intended for use in intramedullary nailing procedures to establish and maintain a central guide within the medullary canal of long bones. It is used during closed or limited-open reductions to provide a stable path for cannulated reamers, guide wires and cannulated nail systems, facilitating accurate nail insertion and alignment in femoral, tibial and humeral fixation procedures.

Design & Configuration

The 2.5 mm shaft diameter provides a balance between low profile and columnar stiffness: small enough to minimize cortical disruption and soft-tissue irritation during initial canal entry, yet sufficiently rigid to resist bending when used as a working guide during reaming and implant passage. The 35 cm overall length accommodates antegrade and retrograde approaches in common long-bone procedures. A straight, continuous shaft geometry promotes predictable passage through the canal and consistent engagement with cannulated instruments.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: guide pin for intramedullary nail systems
• Diameter: 2.5 mm
• Overall length: 35 cm
• Configuration: straight, rigid shaft suitable for cannulated instrument guidance
• Primary use: establishing canal access and guiding cannulated reamers and nails
• Construction: stainless steel; reusable

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide the stiffness necessary for guide function while resisting corrosion under standard sterilization protocols. The shaft is precision-ground to ensure concentricity for smooth passage of cannulated instruments and consistent alignment during instrumentation. Designed for repeated sterilization and clinical use.

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.
