Arthrex AR-1920PB 5mm Bio-Corkscrew Bone Punch – 10"

The Arthrex AR-1920PB is a high-precision preparation instrument engineered for advanced shoulder and sports medicine procedures. This 5mm punch is specifically calibrated to create the pilot hole for Arthrex Bio-Corkscrew and associated suture anchors. Its design ensures that the bone socket is perfectly sized to provide maximum primary stability for the anchor, which is critical for successful rotator cuff and labral repairs.

Featuring a 10-inch (25.4cm) overall length, the AR-1920PB provides the necessary reach to access the glenohumeral joint through standard arthroscopic portals. The ergonomic handle is designed to transmit mallet strikes efficiently to the tip, allowing for controlled bone penetration even in dense cortical bone.

Key Features

Clinical & Operational Advantages

• Precise Anchor Seating: The 5mm diameter is precisely matched to Arthrex anchor specifications, reducing the risk of anchor migration or "back-out" caused by improperly sized pilot holes.

• Arthroscopic Reach: The 10" shaft length is optimized for use with Arthrex cannulas, providing clear access to the superior glenoid or greater tuberosity during arthroscopic shoulder reconstruction.

• Tactile Feedback: Unlike power drills, this manual punch allows the surgeon to feel the "drop" through the cortex, providing better control over the depth of the socket.
