Zimmer Standard Hex Driver | 2.5mm Hex | Cannulated | 2360-166-25 | Reusable

The Zimmer 2360-166-25 is a high-precision manual surgical driver engineered for the insertion and final seating of 2.5mm hex-head screws. As a core component of Zimmer Biomet’s small-fragment and periarticular locking systems, this driver is essential for the internal fixation of fractures in the distal radius, fibula, and humerus.

A key technical feature of this model is its cannulated shaft, which allows the driver to be passed over a guide wire (typically 1.1mm or 1.25mm). This ensures perfect axial alignment during screw insertion, preventing "walking" or stripping of the screw head in complex anatomical sites where visibility may be restricted.

Key Specifications

• Manufacturer: Zimmer Biomet

• Model / REF: 2360-166-25

• Product Type: Standard Hex Driver

• Hex Size: 2.5mm (Precision Ground)

• Configuration: Cannulated (Wire-Guided Compatibility)

• Interface: Quick-Connect (AO/Synthes Style Compatible)

• Material: High-Tensile Surgical Stainless Steel

• Cleaning: Fully Autoclavable / Reusable

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• 2.5mm Precision Hex Interface: The hex tip is precision-machined to ensure a high-torque mechanical interlock with the screw head. This minimizes the risk of "rounding out" the hex recess during high-torque applications in dense cortical bone.

• Cannulated Alignment Control: The internal lumen allows for a "Seldinger-style" approach over a K-wire. This is particularly advantageous in percutaneous or minimally invasive (MIS) procedures, where maintaining the trajectory of the pilot hole is critical.

• Extended Reach Shaft: The elongated driver body is designed to clear soft tissue protectors and drill guides, providing the surgeon with an unobstructed view of the screw-to-plate interface.

• Standard AO Quick-Connect: Featuring a universal quick-connect shank, this driver integrates seamlessly with modular T-handles, ratcheting handles, and powered surgical drivers found in standard small-fragment trays.

• Zimmer Industrial Durability: Forged from medical-grade stainless steel, the 2360-166-25 is built to maintain its hex tolerances through years of high-torque manual use and repeated sterilization cycles.

Applications

• Orthopedic Trauma: Internal fixation of distal radius, fibula, and distal humerus fractures using 3.5mm or 4.0mm screws with 2.5mm hex heads.

• Periarticular Plating: Final tightening of locking screws in periarticular and Universal Locking Systems (ULS).

• Small Fragment Reconstruction: Any procedure requiring the placement of 2.5mm hex-driven hardware over a guide wire.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: Used – Good Usable Condition.

• Maintenance: This instrument shows visible signs of professional use (minor surface scuffs consistent with standard tray storage and autoclaving), but it remains fully functional. The 2.5mm hex tip is crisp and free of rounding, the cannulation is clear and unobstructed, and the quick-connect interface is secure.

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

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in protective, padded packaging to ensure the precision 2.5mm hex tip and cannulated shaft remain in factory-standard condition during transit.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
