Counter Sink For Mini Screws

Description

Counter Sink For Mini Screws

The mini screw countersink cuts a small seat for mini screw heads. It suits hand, foot and facial fixation.

Mini screws, thin bone

Mini screws often fix very small bones. Therefore a flush head helps prevent cracking and irritation. In addition, the countersink makes that possible.

Size listed

It is listed for 1.1 mm and 1.5 / 2 mm screws. Check your mini system to confirm. Also, we will help match it.

Who uses a mini screw countersink

Hand surgeons use it in finger and metacarpal fixation. Also, foot and facial surgeons use it. Pediatric teams use it on small bones.

Gentle technique

Turn the countersink very lightly, since thin bone gives way quickly. Then stop as soon as a seat forms. Over-cutting weakens the bone.

Small set essential

A mini set without a countersink is incomplete. Consequently, many surgeons add one. Moreover, it takes little space.

Keeping the seat shallow

With mini screws, even half a millimeter of extra depth matters. Consequently, a light touch and frequent checks give the best result. Stop as soon as the head sits flush.
