Frequently asked questions
Does the titanium construction offer weight advantages?
Yes. The use of titanium in the construction of this instrument provides a superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to traditional stainless steel. This makes the instrument exceptionally lightweight (weighing only 0.01 lbs), which helps reduce hand fatigue for the surgeon during long or complex procedures.
Is the thin footplate design beneficial for precision?
Absolutely. The thin footplate is specifically engineered to provide:
- Enhanced Access: It allows for easier insertion into narrow or confined anatomical spaces.
