Clinical Application
This trocar-point Kirschner wire is designed for percutaneous skeletal fixation and provisional stabilization in a wide range of orthopedic procedures. The 2.2 x 310 mm dimension provides a balance of axial stiffness and working length suitable when a 2.2 mm diameter pin and extended reach are required, such as temporary fracture fixation, skeletal traction setups, external fixation constructs, and as a guide pin for cannulated implants.
Design & Configuration
The straight, smooth-shaft geometry with a trocar cutting tip facilitates controlled percutaneous entry through soft tissue and cortical bone. The trocar point concentrates cutting force at the tip to achieve reliable cortical penetration and controlled advancement. A smooth shaft minimizes soft-tissue drag during insertion and removal and allows the wire to be used in conjunction with clamps, fixation blocks, or cannulated instruments.
Instrument Specifications
- Instrument type: Kirschner wire (K-wire)
- Pattern / model: Trocar point (R/end)
- Configuration: Straight, smooth shaft with single trocar tip
- Size: 2.2 x 310 mm
- Tip pattern: Trocar point
- Typical use: Percutaneous fixation, provisional fracture stabilization, external fixation, guide pin for cannulated screws
- Material: Surgical-grade stainless steel
Material & Construction
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide the torsional strength and corrosion resistance required for orthopedic fixation work. The trocar tip is ground to a sharp, durable profile suitable for percutaneous cortical engagement; the smooth, polished shaft reduces soft-tissue friction and assists handling when used with clamps and fixation devices.
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.
