3.5mm Cortical Self Tapping Screw 16mm 7.5 cm (3")

3.5mm Cortical Self-Tapping Screw (16mm)

This 3.5mm cortical self-tapping screw, measuring 16mm in length, is engineered for reliable fixation in dense bone structures. Designed for orthopedic applications, it features a sharp thread profile that cuts its own path, eliminating the need for pre-drilling and reducing surgical time. The self-tapping mechanism ensures secure purchase in cortical bone, providing stable anchorage for plates and external fixators. Ideal for fracture repair and osteotomy procedures, this implant offers consistent performance and ease of insertion, supporting efficient workflow in operating rooms and ambulatory surgery centers across the United States.

• Fixation of long bone fractures requiring cortical support
• Securing orthopedic plates to dense cortical bone
• Osteotomy stabilization in extremity reconstruction
• Attachment points for external fixator frames

Specifications

• Inspect threads for damage or debris before sterilization
