Clinical Application
Designed for percutaneous skeletal fixation and provisional stabilization, this trocar-point pin is used to secure bone fragments, maintain reduction during internal fixation, act as guide pins for cannulated implants, or provide temporary transosseous fixation in hand, wrist, foot and other small-to-medium bone procedures. The 2.2 x 60 mm profile is sized for common orthopaedic pinning indications where a balance of strength and minimal profile is required.
Design & Configuration
The trocar point tip is a sharp, triangular cutting geometry that facilitates controlled penetration of skin and cortical bone with reduced tendency to skive. The straight, solid-pin configuration provides predictable alignment and axial rigidity for maintaining reduction or acting as a guidewire. The 60 mm length affords adequate purchase in many small-bone applications while minimizing excess protrusion for easier handling and dressing.
