Kirschner Wire Tro. point round end 1.6x140mm

Clinical Application

Designed for percutaneous skeletal fixation and temporary stabilization in orthopedic and trauma procedures. The 1.6 x 140 mm dimension is commonly used for small-bone fixation, phalangeal and metacarpal pinning, provisional fracture stabilization, and as part of external fixation constructs. The trocar point facilitates cortical penetration during insertion, while the rounded opposite end allows secure seating in pin drivers or fixation clamps.

Design & Configuration

The straight cylindrical geometry provides stable axial support and predictable alignment when used for fragment control or as guide pins. A trocar (sharp) tip reduces initial resistance when crossing cortical bone, minimizing bending forces during placement. The rounded/blunt opposite end permits engagement by manual pin drivers or power handpieces without a cutting tip at that end, helping to reduce inadvertent soft-tissue trauma during handling.
