Tendon Tunnel Instrument Screw

Description

Tendon Tunnel Instrument Screw

The tendon tunnel screw is a replacement part for the tendon tunnel instrument. It lets you restore a tunneler with a lost or worn screw component.

Why buy a spare part

Small parts get lost during cleaning and reprocessing. Therefore a spare screw keeps the instrument in service. That avoids buying a whole new tunneler.

Checking fit

Tunnelers vary in design, so fit matters. Please tell us which tunneler you own before ordering. We will confirm that this screw fits.

Who needs a tendon tunnel screw

Hospitals and clinics that use our tendon tunnel instrument should keep one spare. Also, sterile processing departments may order it after losses. It saves downtime.

Fitting the part

Thread the screw in by hand until it seats. Then check that it holds firmly. Do not overtighten, since that can damage the threads.

Keeping parts together

Small parts go missing in wash baskets. Consequently, clean the tunneler and screw together in a small mesh basket. Count parts after reprocessing.
