Kirschner Wire Tro. point round end 1.4x160mm

Clinical Application

Designed for percutaneous skeletal fixation and temporary stabilization, this 1.4 x 160 mm Kirschner wire is intended for use in procedures such as pinning of small bones, provisional fixation during fracture reduction, and adjunctive use with external fixation systems. The small-diameter profile makes it appropriate for applications in the hand, wrist, foot, and pediatric cases where minimal bone removal and precise placement are required. It can also be used as a guide or leader pin for cannulated implants when appropriate.

Design & Configuration

The trocar point geometry provides a sharp, cutting tip that facilitates controlled percutaneous bone entry with reduced need for pre-drilling, improving tactile feedback during placement. A straight, smooth shaft allows passage through soft tissue with minimal drag and permits biplanar positioning and easy advancement or removal. The round end opposite the tip enables secure seating in wire drivers, pin chucks, or manual instruments and reduces the risk of snagging soft tissues during manipulation. The 160 mm length offers reach for deeper or anatomically variable fixation sites while the 1.4 mm diameter balances flexibility and axial strength for small-bone applications.
