Zimmer 2360-20-20 2.0mm Prosthesis Implantation Positioning Standard Cannula Orthopedic

Zimmer Positioning Standard Cannula | 2.0mm ID | Orthopedic Trauma | 2360-20-20 | Reusable

The Zimmer 2360-20-20 is a high-precision orthopedic guide instrument engineered for the accurate spatial positioning of implants and auxiliary tools. With a 2.0mm internal diameter (ID), this standard cannula is a core component of Zimmer Biomet’s cannulated instrument suites, serving as a protective and directional conduit for 2.0mm guide wires, cannulated drills, and depth gauges.

By providing a rigid, linear path through soft tissue and into bone, the 2360-20-20 ensures that secondary instruments follow the exact trajectory of the initial guide wire. This is critical in minimally invasive (MIS) surgery and periarticular locking plate fixations, where "axial drift" can lead to malpositioned screws or compromised construct stability.

Key Specifications

• Manufacturer: Zimmer Biomet

• Model / REF: 2360-20-20

• Product Type: Positioning Standard Cannula

• Internal Diameter: 2.0mm (Precision Cannulation)

• Compatibility: 2.0mm Guide Wires, Cannulated Drills, and Taps

• Material: Medical-Grade Surgical Stainless Steel

• Configuration: Standard Solid-Wall Cannula

• Cleaning: Fully Autoclavable / Reusable

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Precision 2.0mm Lumen: The internal bore is precision-ground to minimize "instrument chatter" and lateral deviation. This ensures that a 2.0mm drill or wire remains perfectly centered, providing a predictable and repeatable entry point for 3.5mm or 4.0mm cannulated screws.

• Soft Tissue Protection: The smooth, polished exterior of the cannula acts as a barrier, shielding muscle, nerves, and vasculature from the rotational forces of surgical drills and taps. This is essential for "percutaneous" techniques where surgical visualization is limited.

• Anatomical Positioning Accuracy: Designed to interface with Zimmer’s positioning handles and drill guides, this cannula provides the leverage needed to maintain the desired angle of attack even when engaging dense or oblique cortical bone.

• Standard System Integration: Fully compatible with Zimmer’s established trauma workflows, the 2360-20-20 integrates seamlessly into periarticular locking and universal small-fragment sets.

• High-Durability Stainless Steel: Forged from high-tensile stainless steel, the cannula resists bending and maintains its 2.0mm internal tolerance through years of high-torque clinical use and aggressive sterilization cycles.

Applications

• Orthopedic Trauma: Guidance for cannulated screw placement in the distal radius, humerus, or fibula.

• Periarticular Fixation: Positioning guide wires for fixed-angle locking plates in complex joint-space fractures.

• Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS): Serving as a primary access portal for percutaneous fracture reduction and fixation.

• Prosthesis Implantation: Accurate alignment of wires for the positioning of specialized orthopedic implants and hardware.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: Used – Good Usable Condition.

• Maintenance: This instrument shows visible signs of professional use (minor surface scuffs or "tray wear" consistent with standard hospital processing), but it remains fully functional. The 2.0mm lumen is clear and unobstructed, the axial shaft is perfectly straight, and the stainless steel is free of pitting or corrosion.

• Professional Standards: With over 25 years of experience in surgical instrumentation and hospital materials, Primis Medical ensures all Zimmer orthopedic accessories are function-verified and ultrasonically cleaned prior to shipment.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in protective, padded packaging to ensure the precision 2.0mm cannulation and axial alignment remain in factory-standard condition during transit.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
