Kirschner Wire Trocar Point Pin 1.0x120mm

Clinical Application

This trocar‑point Kirschner wire is intended for percutaneous skeletal fixation and temporary stabilization of fractures and osteotomies. At 1.0 mm diameter and 120 mm length, it is commonly used for fixation of small bones and bone fragments (eg, digits, metacarpals/metatarsals, small pediatric applications), transarticular pinning, and as a guide/pilot pin for cannulated implants or external fixation constructs. The sharp trocar point facilitates direct penetration of cortical bone without the need for a separate awl in many cases, enabling rapid closed or mini‑open pinning procedures.

Design & Configuration

The trocar point geometry provides a three‑faceted, sharp cutting tip that penetrates cortical bone efficiently and reduces the force required for insertion compared with blunt or chisel tips. The smooth, solid shaft minimizes soft‑tissue drag and facilitates placement and removal through percutaneous entry sites. The 120 mm length supplies sufficient working length for most small‑bone and handheld fixation scenarios while the 1.0 mm diameter offers a balance of flexibility and rigidity—appropriate for delicate reductions but requiring care to avoid overload or bending during heavy load applications. These design characteristics support controlled, minimally invasive pin placement and secure temporary fixation.

Instrument Specifications

• Diameter: 1.0 mm
• Length: 120 mm
• Tip: Trocar point
• Configuration: Solid, smooth pin
• Typical uses: Percutaneous fixation, temporary stabilization, transarticular pinning, guide pin for cannulated systems

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical‑grade stainless steel commonly used for orthopaedic pins, providing the corrosion resistance and surface finish expected for musculoskeletal instrumentation. The shaft is processed for straightness and consistent diameter to ensure predictable mechanical performance during insertion and removal.

Quality & Compliance

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

Brand Comparison
