Whiteside Biomechanics BIO-1-1034 Hip Positioner Peg 6"

Whiteside Biomechanics BIO-1-1034 7" Lateral Hip Positioner Peg

The Whiteside Biomechanics BIO-1-1034 is a professional-grade positioning component engineered for the rigorous demands of orthopedic surgery. Designed to be used in conjunction with a lateral peg-board system (sold separately), this peg acts as a rigid anchor point to stabilize the patient's bony landmarks—typically the pubic symphysis or sacrum. Its 7-inch overall length (providing approximately 6 inches of working support) ensures that even when thick foam padding or gel sheets are used for skin protection, there is ample peg height to maintain secure patient containment.

Constructed from high-tensile, medical-grade materials, the BIO-1-1034 is built to withstand the lateral "torque" forces inherent in hip replacement surgery. Its standardized diameter ensures a precise, "no-wobble" fit into compatible positioning boards, providing surgeons with a predictable and rock-solid surgical field.
