Synthes 310.530 2.4mm Drill Bit/QC/100mm

Synthes 2.4mm Drill Bit | Quick Coupling (QC) | 100mm | 310.530

The Synthes 310.530 is a high-performance surgical cutting tool engineered for the precise preparation of pilot holes in cortical and cancellous bone. With a 2.4mm diameter, this bit is the primary instrument used to prepare bone for 3.5mm Cortex Screws and 4.0mm Cancellous Screws, making it a staple of the Synthes Small Fragment Set.

Featuring a Quick Coupling (QC) end, this drill bit is designed for rapid, secure attachment to standard surgical power tool handpieces and manual handles. The 100mm length provides the necessary reach for deep orthopedic corridors, while the specialized flute geometry ensures efficient debris evacuation.

Key Specifications

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Optimized for 3.5mm/4.0mm Systems: This 2.4mm bit is precision-calibrated to create the ideal pilot hole for 3.5mm cortex screws. This ensures maximum thread purchase and pull-out resistance, which is critical for stable internal fixation.

• Efficient Heat Management: The dual-flute design is engineered to clear bone "chips" rapidly during high-speed drilling. This prevents clogging and reduces the risk of thermal necrosis, maintaining the biological viability of the bone for faster healing in 2026 recovery protocols.

• Quick Coupling Interface: The QC end allows for "one-click" attachment and removal. This increases intraoperative efficiency, allowing the surgical tech to swap between drilling, reaming, and driving tools without manual chuck adjustments.

• Calibrated for Accuracy: The 100mm length is compatible with standard Synthes drill sleeves and depth gauges, allowing the surgeon to accurately measure the required screw length directly from the drill bit's position.

• Durable Surgical Steel: Manufactured from high-strength stainless steel, the 310.530 maintains its sharpness through multiple autoclavable cycles, though it is often treated as a limited-use item to ensure peak cutting performance.

Applications

• Small Fragment Trauma: Preparing holes for 3.5mm plating systems (LCP, DCP) in the humerus, radius, ulna, and fibula.

• Ankle & Foot Surgery: Drilling for 4.0mm cannulated or non-cannulated screws in malleolar or metatarsal fractures.

• Pelvic Surgery: Providing the necessary reach for auxiliary screw placement in acetabular reconstruction.

• General Orthopedics: Any procedure requiring a 2.4mm pilot hole for cortical anchorage.
