bone wire hard 0.3mm, 10m

Clinical Application

Provides a low-profile fixation option for cerclage and tension-band techniques, figure-of-eight constructs, and provisional stabilization during fixation of fractures. The 0.3 mm hard wire is particularly suited to small-bone, hand, wrist, foot, and pediatric applications where minimal bulk and reliable retention of twists are important. It can be used to augment plate-and-screw constructs or for temporary retention while definitive fixation is applied.

Design & Configuration

The "hard" designation indicates a work-hardened stainless-steel wire that maintains its shape and holds twists and knots more securely than softer annealed wire. The 0.3 mm diameter offers a low profile that reduces soft-tissue irritation and prominence under skin while still providing sufficient tensile strength for many cerclage and tension-band constructs. Supplied as a continuous 10 m length on a spool, the wire is convenient for cut-to-length use in the sterile field and is compatible with standard wire twisters, cutters, and tensioning techniques used in orthopedic practice.
