The 3.5 mm Locking Compression Plate for Upper Extremities is an anatomically contoured fixation solution designed for fracture management in the upper limb. It combines conventional compression plating with angular-stable locking fixation, providing a versatile hybrid fixation option.
The plate accommodates both locking screw fixation and dynamic compression, allowing the fixation technique to be selected according to the fracture pattern and surgical requirements. Its low-profile configuration, rounded edges, and highly polished surface are designed to minimize soft-tissue irritation.
Manufactured from TA3G/TC4 titanium alloy, the plate is compatible with both locking and cortical screws and is available in multiple lengths and configurations for different upper-extremity applications.
The 20° conical locking holes provide an angular-stable screw-plate interface when used with compatible locking screws.
The screw heads feature a conical threaded interface compatible with the plate's locking and compression holes, supporting both locking and conventional fixation techniques.
Sharp self-tapping screw tips facilitate insertion and help simplify screw placement during the procedure.
Ball-headed cortical screws can be inserted eccentrically to provide axial compression when required.
The anodized surface treatment provides color coding for component identification and contributes to corrosion resistance.
The plate features a low-notch, polished design with anatomical contouring to match the targeted bone and help reduce soft-tissue irritation.
Different plate lengths and configurations are available to accommodate various anatomical applications within the upper extremity.
The plate combines dynamic compression and locking fixation in a single implant, allowing surgeons to use different fixation strategies according to fracture characteristics.
The locking mechanism provides angular stability without requiring the plate to be tightly compressed against the bone, helping limit interference with the periosteal blood supply.
The smooth surface, rounded edges, and low-profile configuration are designed to minimize implant prominence and soft-tissue irritation.
The screw design incorporates tailored thread depths, including shallow or deep thread configurations according to screw diameter and the intended bone application, to support secure screw engagement.
The plate is manufactured from TA3G/TC4 titanium alloy, providing the material characteristics specified for orthopedic fixation, including mechanical strength and biocompatibility.
