System Features

This nail incorporates a 1.8m radius of curvature and a 5-degree distal bend for ease of insertion. Distal screws can be removed without disengaging the embedded setscrew since the holes within the setscrew are grooved.

CoreLock Technology

CoreLock Technology allows four distal screws to be locked to help minimize lateral screw impingement. The locking mechanism is preassembled within the nail, therefore eliminating freehand insertion.

5mm Double-Lead Thread Screws

Composed of titanium alloy with a self-tapping tip, this screw features a double-lead thread design intended to provide quick insertion and bicortical purchase.

End Caps

3.5mm Inserter connector retains head of end cap designed to facilitate easier insertion. End caps offered in 0mm,5mm, 10mm, 15mm and 20mm sizes.
