The 3.5mm Safety Locking Screws Self Tapping Titanium are advanced orthopedic implants designed for use with locking compression plate systems in fracture fixation and reconstructive procedures. These screws provide strong and stable fixation by locking securely into compatible plates, creating a fixed-angle construct that improves overall biomechanical stability.
The self-tapping design eliminates the need for pre-tapping in many surgical applications, allowing easier insertion, reduced operative time, and efficient surgical workflow. The safety locking mechanism enhances screw retention and minimizes the risk of loosening during the healing process.
Manufactured from premium medical-grade titanium, the screws offer exceptional biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, lightweight strength, and long-term durability. Titanium construction also reduces implant reactivity and supports reliable performance in load-bearing orthopedic applications.
The 3.5mm size is widely used in small and medium bone fixation procedures including trauma surgery, reconstructive orthopedic surgery, hand and foot surgery, and veterinary orthopedic applications.
These screws are compatible with standard 3.5mm locking compression plate systems and are fully sterilizable for safe surgical use.
