Kirschner Wire Lancet Point Pin 1.8x100mm

Clinical Application

This lancet-point Kirschner wire is intended for percutaneous skeletal fixation and provisional stabilization during orthopedic procedures. Its 1.8 mm diameter and 100 mm length make it suitable for temporary fixation, fracture fragment control, pinning of small-to-medium bones, and use in external fixation assemblies. The pointed tip facilitates cortical penetration for rapid insertion in closed or percutaneous techniques, and can also be used as a guide pin where clinically appropriate.

Design & Configuration

The straight, smooth-shaft geometry provides predictable trajectory and minimal soft-tissue profile once placed. The lancet point tip is designed to reduce skiving on cortical bone and allow controlled entry without pre-drilling in many indications. The 1.8 mm gauge balances bending resistance with a low-profile footprint to minimize hardware prominence while maintaining adequate strength for provisional or definitive pin constructs.

Instrument Specifications

• Diameter: 1.8 mm
• Length: 100 mm
• Tip: Lancet point
• Configuration: Straight, smooth pin
• Primary uses: Percutaneous skeletal fixation, provisional fixation, external stabilization
• Material: Surgical stainless steel

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance and consistent mechanical properties. The polished finish on the shaft reduces tissue drag during insertion and facilitates atraumatic removal when fixation is no longer required.

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.
