Designed for orthopedic applications, primarily in hip arthroplasty. It facilitates accurate positioning and secure seating of modular femoral stems by transmitting controlled impact force during implantation.
Key Features
- Purpose: Positions and drives orthopedic implants (e.g., femoral stems) into their final anatomical location.
- Design:
- Proximal End: Ergonomic handle engineered to absorb impact from a surgical mallet.
- Distal End: Shaped to conform to implant geometry for precise alignment.
- Material: High-grade surgical stainless steel and/or polymer for durability and sterilization compatibility.
- Reusability: Designed for repeated use following proper sterilization protocols.
- Latex-Free: Not made with natural rubber latex.
- Compatibility: Intended for modular hip prosthesis systems (cemented or uncemented).
Dimensions
- Overall Length: 12 ½" (12.5 in = 318 mm)
- Handle Diameter: 1 ¼" (1.25 in = 32 mm)
- Distal Working End Width: ¾" (0.75 in = 19 mm)
