Additional Product Information

Over the years, many customers have used miniature Interface fixation half-pins for a variety of non-external fixation purposes when a K-wire sized implant with a short threaded portion is what the surgeon really desires. Such applications are frequent in small dogs, cats, avian, and exotic patients and include: tibial crest translocations, capital physeal fractures and avulsion fractures of the greater trochanter. These applications often involve bending the pin over as in tension band applications. When miniature Interface pins are bent acutely at their roughened shaft area, they may break.
