Kirschner Wire Tro. point round end 1.8x120mm

Clinical Application

Designed for orthopedic and trauma procedures that require percutaneous or temporary fixation of bone. Common uses include provisional stabilization during fracture reduction, pinning for external fixation constructs, skeletal traction, and fixation of small- to medium-sized bone fragments in hand, wrist, forearm, foot, and ankle procedures. The slender 1.8 mm profile provides a low-profile option when space is limited or when minimal soft-tissue disruption is preferable.

Design & Configuration

The trocar-style point provides a sharp, cutting tip that eases cortical penetration and facilitates controlled insertion through hard cortical bone with minimal skiving. The straight pin geometry maintains alignment during insertion and fixation. The stated 120 mm length offers sufficient working length for many extremity applications while the 1.8 mm diameter balances bending strength and a low tissue profile—important when pins are left percutaneously for temporary fixation.

Instrument Specifications
