Kirschner Wire Trocar Point Pin 1.8x120mm

Clinical Application

This trocar-point Kirschner wire is intended for percutaneous and minimally invasive skeletal fixation where a slender, rigid pin is required. Common uses include provisional fracture stabilization, transverse or longitudinal pin fixation in hand, wrist and foot procedures, temporary fixation during open reduction, and as a guide or pilot pin for subsequent hardware placement under fluoroscopic guidance. The trocar point facilitates direct cortical entry for precise placement in metaphyseal and diaphyseal bone.

Design & Configuration

The trocar-point geometry provides a sharp three-edged tip that penetrates cortical bone with reduced skiving, enabling controlled percutaneous insertion with minimal soft-tissue displacement. The straight, uniform diameter shaft gives predictable stiffness and tactile feedback during drilling or manual insertion. The 1.8 mm diameter balances strength with low-profile fixation suitable for small bone work in the hand, wrist, and foot while the 120 mm length permits reaches into deeper constructions or external fixation frames.

Instrument Specifications

• Diameter: 1.8 mm
• Length: 120 mm
• Tip type: Trocar (sharp trocar-point) tip for direct cortical entry
• Intended use: Percutaneous skeletal fixation, provisional and temporary fixation, pinning for small bones
• Construction: Surgical-grade stainless steel; reusable

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical stainless steel to provide the rigidity and corrosion resistance required for orthopedic fixation pins. The material and heat-treatment processes used for this class of instrument are chosen to preserve sharpness of the trocar point and to withstand repeated handling and sterilization cycles in the operative setting.

Quality & Compliance

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