Orthopedic K-Wires

Orthopedic K-Wires Instruments

gSource K-wires (Kirschner wires) are precision ground from certified implant German surgical stainless steel or titanium alloy and have clean, narrow ends that are machine ground for optimal penetration. They are sold in packages of 6 each and are available in both sterile and non-sterile packaging. Internal fixation devices such as K-wires are intended for single-use only and must not be reused. Available in a variety of lengths, diameter sizes and patterns, including smooth or threaded, as well as various tip ends such as double trocar, single trocar, double diamond, and single diamond. K-wires are used to help reduce and stabilize fractures, osteotomies and fusions and are considered a versatile tool for orthopedic and plastic surgeons.

The Importance of K-Wires

Kirschner wires are a less invasive way of treating breaks and fractures than the more traditional methods of inserting plates and screws through surgery. They are most common in wrist, hand, elbow, foot and ankle fractures, and their differences are influenced by a patient’s injury and skeletal architecture. They hold the bone together while it goes through its natural healing process so that it can return to optimal functioning. K-wires are an integral part of healing bones properly and come in various sizes and diameters.

Our double diamond range is available in multiple diameters. Because these tools are double-ended, they are more easily inserted into bones from either side. This design is excellent at helping orthopedic surgeons fix broken bones.

A double trocar K-wire is ideal for small bone fractures, such as those in children or pets. It is also very helpful in guiding pins for grafting procedures.

Double trocar threaded K-wire is a superb tool for any orthopedic surgeon to have in their toolbox when repairing bone fractures.

A single diamond tip helps pull small fractures and fragments together, which is why surgeons use them in bone fractures in the wrist and other delicate parts of the body where fragments are more likely to occur.

Single trocar tips have high tensile strength, and surgeons use them to repair fractures and for pin guidance in grafting placements.

A single trocar 25mm threaded K-wire can fix internal bone fractures and stabilize bones in orthopedic procedures.

A single trocar fully threaded K-wire is threaded internally into bones for fractures and breaks, and the surgeon removes it after healing.
