Synthes 207.720 4.0mm Cannulated Screw Long Thread 20mm

• Model: 207.720
• 4.0mm
• A small, non-sterile, threaded rod with a slotted head typically used for internal orthopedic fracture fixation by being screwed into bone to hold plates or nails to bone or to provide direct interfragmentary stabilization of bone, or it may fasten soft tissue to bone; it is made of a material that cannot be chemically degraded or absorbed via natural body processes (includes implant grade metal such as surgical steel, titanium alloy, or carbon fiber).
• Screws available are: cortical, cancellous, malleolar, scaphoid, partially-threaded and fully-threaded, self-tapping, and cannulated.
• A "lag screw" can be any of these used to obtain compression.
• This device must be sterilized before use.

The Synthes 207.720 4.0mm Cannulated Screw is designed for orthopedic applications requiring precise fixation in small bone structures. With a length of 20 mm and a full 20 mm thread, this screw is ideal for stabilizing fractures in areas where longer screw lengths are necessary. Its 1.75 mm thread pitch ensures secure engagement with cortical bone, while the 2.25 mm core diameter provides strength without compromising the screw's flexibility. The 5.0 mm head diameter allows for optimal seating within the plate, and the 1.35 mm cannulation facilitates the use of a guide wire for accurate placement.

Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, the 207.720 screw offers excellent biocompatibility and resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for long-term implantation. The small hexagonal socket head type ensures a secure fit with the appropriate driver, allowing for precise torque application during insertion. Its self-drilling and self-tapping design eliminates the need for separate drilling or tapping steps, streamlining the surgical workflow and reducing intraoperative handling.
