Hexagonal Screw Driver With T-Handle

Description

Hexagonal Screw Driver With T-Handle

The T-handle hex screwdriver drives hexagonal-head bone screws with firm control. Five sizes cover small to large screws.

Hexagonal heads

Many bone screws have a hexagonal recess. Also, a matching hex driver grips all six faces. Therefore torque transfers evenly and the head resists stripping.

Five sizes

Choose 2.5, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 or 7.0 mm. Moreover, the small sizes suit small fragment screws. Meanwhile, 4.5 and 7.0 mm suit large and cannulated screws.

Who uses a T-handle hex screwdriver

Trauma surgeons use it for insertion and final tightening. Also, hardware removal cases rely on it. Large screws especially benefit from the T-handle.

Why a T-handle hex screwdriver

The T shape lets the surgeon apply torque with both hands. Consequently, stuck screws turn more easily. It also gives a fine feel for final tightness.

Matching the size

Match the driver to the hex recess, not the screw diameter. Then seat it fully before turning. In addition, a partial fit can round the recess.
