Clinical Application
Designed for percutaneous skeletal fixation, this trocar‑point pin is used to establish provisional or definitive fixation in small‑bone and metaphyseal fractures, temporary stabilization during reduction and internal fixation, and for pin‑and‑wire constructs in hand, wrist and pediatric orthopedics. The 1.2 x 60 mm diameter/length combination is commonly selected for metacarpal, phalangeal and distal radius work where a fine, rigid pin is required to maintain alignment without excessive soft‑tissue bulk.
Design & Configuration
The trocar point geometry features a sharpened, triangular cutting tip that facilitates controlled cortical entry with minimal skiving. A smooth, round shaft permits atraumatic passage through soft tissues and straightforward engagement into bone with manual drivers or standard pin chucks. The straight, uniform profile supports predictable seating depth and easy removal when temporary fixation is no longer required.
Instrument Specifications
- Diameter: 1.2 mm
- Overall length: 60 mm
- Tip: Trocar (sharp cutting) point for reliable cortical penetration
- Intended use: Percutaneous pinning, provisional fixation, skeletal stabilization
Material & Construction
Manufactured from surgical‑grade stainless steel with a smooth polished finish to reduce soft‑tissue drag and facilitate atraumatic insertion and removal. The material and finish support routine cleaning and sterilization workflows and provide corrosion resistance appropriate for implantable temporary fixation pins.
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.
