The 9″ Steinman Pin Threaded Single Trocar 3/16 6 Pack is a specialized orthopedic surgical pin designed for applications requiring controlled bone penetration, skeletal traction, and temporary orthopedic fixation. Measuring 9 inches in length and 3/16 inch in diameter, this Steinmann pin provides an extended working length suitable for orthopedic and trauma procedures where secure positioning and appropriate bone engagement are required.
The pin features a threaded shaft, which is designed to provide mechanical engagement with bone when properly placed. Threading can help maintain the position of the pin during appropriate traction or fixation applications. The single trocar point provides a pointed cutting profile intended to facilitate controlled entry into bone when used with suitable surgical technique.
Steinmann pins are widely associated with orthopedic trauma and skeletal traction procedures. They may be used as part of traction assemblies or in selected temporary fixation techniques, depending on the clinical application. The appropriate pin size and configuration should always be determined according to the patient’s anatomy, the intended procedure, surgeon preference, and applicable surgical protocols.
The 9-inch length provides an extended profile for positioning and connection to compatible orthopedic traction equipment. The 3/16-inch diameter identifies the shaft size and provides a defined configuration for procedures requiring this specific pin dimension. The threaded design and trocar point work together to support controlled placement while maintaining appropriate mechanical engagement after insertion.
The trocar point differs from a diamond-point configuration by providing a three-sided penetrating geometry. This profile is intended to support controlled advancement during bone entry when the pin is used with appropriate equipment and technique. Accurate placement is important, and the pin should be handled carefully to avoid unintended tissue or structural injury.
This product is supplied in a 6-pack, making it convenient for orthopedic surgical inventory and procedures requiring multiple pins. Having multiple pins available can be useful for trauma centers, orthopedic operating rooms, and surgical facilities that routinely perform skeletal traction or related orthopedic procedures.
Before use, each pin should be inspected for damage, deformation, surface defects, or compromised threads and point geometry. Any applicable sterile-use, single-use, cleaning, or sterilization requirements should be followed according to the manufacturer’s labeling and validated instructions. The product should be used only by appropriately trained healthcare professionals familiar with orthopedic pin placement and traction techniques.
