The 9″ Steinmann Pin Smooth Single Trocar 5/64″ 6 Pack is an orthopedic surgical pin designed for applications requiring controlled bone penetration, skeletal traction, and selected temporary fixation techniques. With a 9-inch overall length and 5/64-inch diameter, this Steinmann pin provides an extended working length while maintaining a relatively narrow shaft profile for procedures requiring this specific size.
The pin features a smooth, non-threaded shaft with a continuous external surface along its main body. This configuration is commonly selected when a smooth Steinmann pin is appropriate for the intended orthopedic technique. Selection of the correct pin diameter and length should be based on the patient’s anatomy, clinical indication, bone characteristics, traction requirements, and the surgeon’s preferred technique.
A single trocar point provides the working end of the pin with a focused penetrating profile. The point is designed to facilitate controlled entry into bone when used with appropriate orthopedic technique. Careful control of the pin’s trajectory and advancement is important for accurate placement and appropriate clinical use.
The 9-inch length offers useful working reach for orthopedic trauma and skeletal traction procedures. The 5/64-inch diameter provides a smaller shaft configuration for applications where a relatively fine Steinmann pin is appropriate. Pin size should always be selected according to the specific anatomical and procedural requirements rather than by length or diameter alone.
Steinmann pins are commonly associated with skeletal traction and may also be used in selected temporary orthopedic stabilization techniques. Depending on the procedure, the pin may be incorporated into compatible traction equipment or used as part of a temporary fixation method. Clinical application should be determined by a qualified orthopedic professional according to established surgical protocols.
This product is supplied as a 6-pack, providing six individual Steinmann pins for orthopedic surgical inventory. The multi-pack format can be useful for orthopedic operating rooms, trauma departments, surgical centers, and other healthcare facilities where multiple pins may be required.
Before use, each pin should be carefully inspected for bending, deformation, surface damage, or irregularities affecting the trocar point. Proper handling and controlled insertion are essential for accurate placement. The pin should be used only by appropriately trained healthcare professionals and for its intended clinical application.
Sterility, single-use status, and reprocessing requirements depend on the specific product configuration and manufacturer labeling. If supplied as a reusable device, cleaning and sterilization should be performed according to validated manufacturer instructions and applicable healthcare-facility protocols.
