The Story
Synthes 400.691 1.3mm TI Cortex Screw Self-Tapping 11mm
• Model: 400.691 Synthes
• 1.3mm
• A small, threaded, non-bioabsorbable, implantable rod intended for internal orthopaedic fixation by being screwed into a limb bone, rib, the sternum and/or pelvis to hold a plate, nail, rod or prosthesis to the bone, or to provide direct interfragmentary stabilization of a fractured bone; it is not intended to be introduced through the sleeve of a femoral neck fixation plate/sleeve, not used in dentistry/orthodontics, craniofacial or spinal bones, and not dedicated to intramedullary fixation/arthrodesis. It is typically of cortical or cancellous design and has a drive (e.g., slot, cross, star, polygonal) at its proximal end for introduction with a screwdriver.
This medical supply or implant item is in its original manufacturer's packaging.
The Synthes 400.691 is a finely engineered 1.3 mm diameter self-tapping titanium cortex screw with a total length of 11 mm. It features a core diameter of 0.9 mm, a head diameter of 2.4 mm, and a thread pitch of 0.5 mm. The head has a cruciform recess for precise driver engagement, and the screw is designed for single-use within DCP (Dynamic Compression Plate) and LC-DCP (Limited Contact Dynamic Compression Plate) systems, particularly for Moderate Hand instrumentation applications.
Crafted from biocompatible titanium, the 400.691 screw combines strength and reduced weight with favorable osseointegration properties—ideal for delicate or precision-demanding bone fixation in hand or wrist surgeries. Its self-tapping design eliminates the need for pre-tapping in cortical bone, thereby streamlining surgical workflow. The cruciform recess ensures secure and accurate driver engagement, minimizing slippage during insertion and enhancing procedural control.
