1.5mm Cortex Screw | Titanium & SS | Micro Fragment System for Hand & Maxillofacial Surgery

The 1.5mm Cortex Screw by OrthoPro is a high-precision implant designed for the fixation of small bone fragments in hand, foot, and maxillofacial surgery. As a vital component of our Micro Fragment System, this 1.5mm cortex screw features a self-tapping thread profile and a low-profile head to minimize soft tissue irritation. Our 1.5mm cortical screw offers superior holding power and reliable performance for orthopedic distributors and trauma surgeons worldwide.

High-Precision 1.5mm Cortex Screw for Micro Fragment Fixation

At OrthoPro, we specialize in delivering top-tier orthopedic solutions to the global medical market. Our 1.5mm Cortex Screw is meticulously engineered to address the delicate requirements of hand, wrist, foot, and craniomaxillofacial (CMF) surgeries. Designed for B2B clients, including hospital procurement departments and medical device distributors, this screw represents the intersection of manufacturing precision and clinical reliability.

The OrthoPro 1.5mm cortex screw is a core element of the Micro Fragment System. It is designed to provide rigid fixation in small bones where space is limited and soft tissue coverage is thin. Whether used for interfragmentary compression (lag screw technique) or plate fixation, this screw ensures optimal stability to facilitate rapid bone healing.

Engineered for Delicate Anatomy

Small bone surgery requires implants that are both strong and unobtrusive. Our 1.5mm cortical screw incorporates several advanced design features:

  • Self-Tapping Tip: The screw features a sharp, fluted tip that cuts its own thread path during insertion. This self-tapping design eliminates the need for a separate tapping step, reducing surgical time and the risk of stripping the delicate thread path in small bones.
  • Optimized Thread Profile: The thread depth and pitch are specifically calculated for micro-cortical bone. This ensures maximum pull-out strength and resistance to loosening, even in comminuted fractures.
  • Low-Profile Head: The screw head is designed to sit flush with the plate or bone surface to prevent irritation to overlying tendons and soft tissues, which is particularly critical in the hand and fingers.
  • Secure Drive Mechanism: Available in Star (Torx), Cruciform (Cross), or Hexagonal drive recesses. The Star drive option is highly recommended for its superior torque transmission, preventing cam-out and ensuring safe insertion.
  • Material Versatility: Manufactured from Medical Grade Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) for excellent biocompatibility and lightweight strength, or Stainless Steel (316L) for varying surgeon preferences.

Clinical Indications and Applications

The 1.5mm Cortex Screw is indicated for the fixation of fractures, osteotomies, arthrodesis, and replantations of small bones. Key areas of application include:

  • Hand Surgery: Fractures of the phalanges and metacarpals.
  • Maxillofacial Surgery: Fixation of midface and cranberry fractures, as well as orthognathic procedures.
  • Foot Surgery: Fixation of small bones in the forefoot.
  • Pediatric Trauma: Suitable for specific pediatric fracture management where small implants are necessary.
