Coupling Bow only for wire drill guide

Clinical Application

This coupling bow is an accessory component used with wire drill guide systems in orthopedic and trauma procedures. It secures and stabilizes the guide assembly to maintain wire or K‑wire trajectory during percutaneous pinning, cannulated screw placement, and other fixation techniques where controlled drilling over a wire is required. By providing a stable interface between the guide and the wire/drill, it helps reduce wire toggle and migration and supports accurate, repeatable drill trajectories in small‑bone, hand/wrist, foot/ankle, and general trauma applications.

Design & Configuration

The bow-shaped geometry is intended to engage the cylindrical profile of a wire drill guide shaft and distribute clamping force circumferentially, improving mechanical stability without excessive localized pressure. Its low‑profile, single‑piece configuration facilitates quick attachment and removal intraoperatively and minimizes obstruction around the operative field, which helps preserve access and fluoroscopic visualization of the fixation site.

Instrument Specifications

Material & Construction

Manufactured from precision‑machined surgical stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance under repeated sterilization cycles. The single‑piece construction provides predictable mechanical performance and is suitable for standard hospital decontamination and sterilization processes. The design focuses on secure mechanical coupling while preserving the ability to be cleaned and reprocessed between uses.

Quality & Compliance

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