The Cortical Screws Self Tapping are precision orthopedic implants widely used in trauma and reconstructive surgery for fixation of cortical bone fractures. These screws are designed to provide strong mechanical grip in dense cortical bone, ensuring reliable stabilization when used with plates or independently in bone fixation procedures.
The self-tapping feature allows the screw to cut its own thread during insertion, eliminating the need for pre-tapping and reducing surgical steps. This improves operative efficiency, shortens surgical time, and ensures smooth and controlled insertion.
These screws are commonly used with dynamic compression plates (DCP), reconstruction plates, and locking compression plate (LCP) systems where cortical bone fixation and compression are required. They help maintain fracture alignment and promote stable bone healing.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium (depending on configuration), the screws offer excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. Their precision-machined threads ensure accurate insertion and dependable fixation performance.
The design ensures optimal load distribution across cortical bone, reducing the risk of loosening and improving long-term stability in orthopedic applications.
These implants are widely used in orthopedic trauma surgery, maxillofacial surgery, hand and foot surgery, and veterinary orthopedic procedures.
The screws are fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
