Kirschner Wire Tro. point round end 1.2x60mm

Clinical Application

This trocar‑point K‑wire is intended for percutaneous skeletal fixation and provisional stabilization in orthopedic and traumatologic procedures where a low‑profile, rigid pin is required. The 1.2 mm diameter and 60 mm length are commonly selected for fixation of phalangeal and metacarpal fractures, distal radius adjunct fixation, temporary pinning during reduction maneuvers, and pediatric small‑bone applications. The trocar tip facilitates predictable cortical entry for percutaneous placement under fluoroscopic guidance.

Design & Configuration

The trocar (cutting) point geometry provides a sharp, three‑facet tip to penetrate cortical bone with controlled advancement and minimal pilot drilling in many small‑bone scenarios. The wire’s round cross‑section delivers uniform bending strength and torsional stability for temporary fixation while maintaining a low implant profile to reduce soft tissue irritation. The round, non‑threaded proximal end is compatible with manual pin chucks and standard K‑wire drivers for both hand and power insertion techniques, allowing secure gripping during placement and removal.

Instrument Specifications

• Type: Kirschner wire (K‑wire)
• Tip: Trocar point
• Size: 1.2 mm x 60 mm
• Configuration: Straight solid wire with round proximal end (non‑threaded)
• Typical use: Percutaneous fixation of small bones, provisional stabilization, pediatric indications
• Material: Surgical‑grade stainless steel

Material & Construction

Manufactured from surgical‑grade stainless steel to provide a balance of stiffness, edge retention at the trocar tip, and corrosion resistance appropriate for temporary percutaneous fixation. The smooth round shaft minimizes soft tissue drag during insertion and removal.

Quality & Compliance

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