The Safety Locking Screws 5.0mm Self Tapping (Titanium) are high-performance orthopedic implants used in trauma and reconstructive surgery for stable fixation of bone fractures. These screws are designed to lock securely into compatible locking compression plates (LCP), forming a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability and reduces the risk of implant loosening.
The self-tapping feature allows the screw to create its own thread during insertion, eliminating the need for pre-tapping. This reduces operative steps, shortens surgery time, and ensures smooth, controlled insertion with minimal bone trauma.
These 5.0mm locking screws are commonly used in large bone fixation, including femur, tibia, and humerus fractures, where strong load-bearing stability is required. They are particularly effective in osteoporotic bone and complex fracture patterns where rigid fixation is essential.
Manufactured from premium medical-grade titanium, the screws offer excellent strength, lightweight performance, corrosion resistance, and superior biocompatibility. Titanium ensures long-term safety and excellent compatibility with internal bone structures.
Precision-engineered threads provide strong cortical and cancellous bone purchase, ensuring reliable fixation under physiological load conditions. These screws are compatible with standard locking plate systems used in orthopedic trauma surgery.
They are widely used in orthopedic and veterinary procedures for fracture stabilization in both small and large animals.
The system is fully sterilizable and supplied in professional surgical packaging for safe handling and efficient operating room workflow.
