Clinical Application
This trocar-point Kirschner wire is intended for percutaneous skeletal fixation and temporary or definitive pinning during orthopedic and trauma procedures. The 2.5 x 160 mm size provides a balance of diameter and reach suitable for fixation of small- to medium-sized bones (for example, hand, wrist, foot, and select long-bone applications) where a rigid straight pin is required to maintain reduction, support tension-band constructs, or serve as a provisional guide for fragment manipulation.
Design & Configuration
The trocar point geometry features a sharp, three‑sided cutting tip that facilitates controlled penetration of cortical bone with minimal skiving, reducing the need for predrilling in many scenarios. The straight, single-piece wire construction provides predictable tactile feedback during insertion and simple, atraumatic removal. The 160 mm length allows access across deeper segments while the 2.5 mm diameter offers appropriate stiffness for stabilization without excessive bulk in confined anatomical regions.
Instrument Specifications
- Size: 2.5 x 160 mm
- Tip: Trocar (three-sided) point
- Configuration: Straight, single-piece pin
- Intended use: Percutaneous fixation, temporary or definitive pinning in orthopedic procedures
Material & Construction
Manufactured as a precision surgical wire from medical-grade stainless steel to provide the balance of strength and corrosion resistance expected for Kirschner wires. Single-piece construction minimizes stress concentrators at joints and provides reliable axial stiffness during insertion and load-bearing applications.
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.
