Driver/ Ext. for Intramedullary Nails 2.4mm

Clinical Application

Designed to transmit controlled torque to small‑diameter intramedullary implants, this extension driver engages the proximal drive feature of 2.4 mm nails for insertion, final seating and extraction. It is intended for procedures on small bones where a low‑profile, accurate driver interface is required—commonly used in hand and foot surgery, metacarpal/phalangeal fixation and selected pediatric intramedullary applications. The extension format facilitates percutaneous or limited‑exposure techniques by allowing the surgeon to reach the implant while maintaining alignment and tactile feedback.

Design & Configuration

The extension shaft provides added reach and separation between the handpiece and the implant site, which helps maintain a straight trajectory while avoiding soft tissue. A precisely machined distal interface ensures a secure engagement with the nail’s proximal drive to minimize cam‑out and allow efficient transfer of torque during seating or removal. The proximal grip is configured for manual control and fine tactile feedback, supporting controlled advancement and extraction under fluoroscopic guidance.

Instrument Specifications

• Driver type: extension driver for intramedullary nails
• Interface size: 2.4 mm
• Primary use: insertion, seating, and removal of small‑diameter IM nails
• Operation: manual hand‑driven torque transmission
• Reusable: yes, designed for repeated sterilization

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical‑grade stainless steel to provide strength, corrosion resistance and durability for repeated use and sterilization cycles. The distal driver interface is precision machined to ensure consistent fit with compatible 2.4 mm nail drive features, and the overall build balances rigidity for torque transfer with ergonomics for manual control.

Quality & Compliance

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