Cortical Screws 3.5mm Self Tapping Assorted Lengths

The 3.5mm Cortical Screws Self Tapping Assorted Lengths are high-quality orthopedic implants used for stable fixation of cortical bone fractures. These screws are designed to provide strong mechanical grip in dense cortical bone and are commonly used with dynamic compression plates (DCP), reconstruction plates, and locking plate systems.

The self-tapping design allows the screw to create its own thread during insertion, eliminating the need for pre-tapping. This reduces surgical steps, shortens operative time, and ensures smooth, controlled insertion with minimal trauma to surrounding bone tissue.

Available in assorted lengths, these screws provide flexibility for surgeons to choose the appropriate size based on fracture type, bone thickness, and anatomical requirements. This makes them suitable for a wide range of orthopedic procedures.

Manufactured from premium medical-grade stainless steel or titanium (depending on configuration), the screws offer excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. Their precision-machined threads ensure secure bone purchase and reliable fixation performance.

These screws are widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery, hand and foot surgery, maxillofacial procedures, and veterinary orthopedic applications involving cortical bone fixation.

The implants are fully sterilizable and supplied in organized surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
