Kirschner Wire Tro. point round end 1.2x160mm

Clinical Application

Designed for percutaneous skeletal fixation and provisional stabilization, this Kirschner wire provides a low-profile option for pinning fractures, holding fragments during reduction, temporary fixation for external fixation constructs, and skeletal traction. The 1.2 x 160 mm size is commonly used in small-bone and extremity procedures where a slender, long pin is required to traverse soft tissue and engage bone for temporary or definitive stabilization.

Design & Configuration

The trocar-point distal geometry facilitates controlled cortical penetration with minimal skiving, helping to establish a secure purchase in bone without the need for extensive pre-drilling in cancellous regions. The straight, round-shaft configuration provides predictable bending characteristics and easy handling during percutaneous insertion and removal. The 160 mm overall length offers sufficient working length for bicortical purchase or for use with external fixation frames while the 1.2 mm diameter keeps soft-tissue profile to a minimum.

Instrument Specifications

• Type: Kirschner wire (K-wire)
• Tip: Trocar point
• End style: Round end
• Size: 1.2 x 160 mm
• Configuration: Straight fixation pin for percutaneous use
• Typical use: Small-bone and extremity fixation, provisional stabilization, external fixation

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide corrosion resistance and reliable mechanical properties for insertion and removal. The single-piece wire construction and smooth shaft reduce soft-tissue irritation and facilitate atraumatic passage through soft tissues.

Quality & Compliance

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