Bone Wire hard 0.6mm, 10m

Clinical Application

Hard 0.6 mm bone wire is used for cerclage and tension-band fixation where a stiff, high-tensile fixation strand is required. Typical applications include circumferential wiring of fractures, provisional reduction and stabilization of bone fragments during internal fixation, and incorporation into tension-band constructs to convert distracting forces into compression at the fracture site. The 0.6 mm diameter provides a balance of strength and profile suitable for small-to-medium bones and clinical situations demanding resistance to elongation and kinking.

Design & Configuration

The hard temper of the wire increases stiffness and tensile strength compared with annealed (soft) wire, improving hold and resistance to loosening under cyclic loading. Supplied on a 10 m spool, the wire is convenient for intraoperative cutting to length, tensioning, and twisting. The single-strand, solid geometry minimizes bulk while providing consistent mechanical behavior during bending, cutting, and knotting or twisting maneuvers performed during cerclage placement.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Bone (cerclage) wire
• Diameter: 0.6 mm
• Length: 10 m spool
• Typical surgical use: Cerclage wiring, tension-band constructs, provisional and definitive fragment fixation
• Material: Stainless steel, hard temper

Material & Construction

The wire is manufactured from stainless steel in a hard temper to deliver elevated tensile strength and improved resistance to deformation. The solid, single-strand construction provides predictable handling characteristics for twisting and cutting. Stainless steel composition offers corrosion resistance appropriate for implantable fixation applications when used according to surgical best practices.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
