Kirschner Wire Tro. point round end 1.8x160mm

Clinical Application

Used for percutaneous and open fixation of bone fragments, this trocar‑point Kirschner wire provides a reliable option for provisional stabilization, fragment capture, external fixation pinning, and skeletal traction. The 1.8 x 160 mm sizing is commonly selected for hand, wrist, foot, and other small-bone applications where a balance of bending resistance and minimal soft‑tissue profile is required.

Design & Configuration

The trocar‑point tip is engineered to concentrate insertion force at a sharp leading edge for efficient cortical penetration without separate drilling in many indications. The "round end" designation refers to the non‑cutting trailing end geometry that facilitates engagement with wire drivers, pin benders, and external fixation clamps while reducing the risk of soft‑tissue snagging at the proximal end. A 1.8 mm shaft diameter offers predictable stiffness and handling for controlled placement and easy trimming or bending when provisional fixation techniques are required. At 160 mm overall length, the wire provides sufficient working length for through‑and‑through pin placement and external fixation constructs in small‑bone surgery.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Kirschner wire (K‑wire)
• Pattern / model: Trocar point, round end
• Configuration: 1.8 x 160 mm
• Tip pattern: Trocar point
• Typical surgical use: Percutaneous skeletal fixation, provisional stabilization, external fixation pinning

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical‑grade stainless steel to provide a smooth, corrosion‑resistant shaft with consistent mechanical properties. The polished surface minimizes soft‑tissue adhesion and facilitates insertion and removal. The trocar point geometry is formed to maintain tip sharpness and predictable penetration characteristics.

Quality & Compliance

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