Featuring UnifiMI® Technology
Cannulated Fastener System
7.0mm & 8.0mm
System Overview
The OsteoCentric Trauma Cannulated Fasteners consist of cannulated fasteners in a variety of lengths and diameters to accommodate different procedures and patient sizes. The fasteners are provided non-sterile and are manufactured from Stainless Steel per ASTM F138.
System Highlights
Resists multi-planar and multi-directional loads through Mechanical Integration.
Designed to engage twice as much bone when loaded in any direction as compared to standard screws.
24mm provides most ideal length for hip fractures*.
What's Inside

Insights From Dr. Weaver
Dr. Michael Weaver, orthopedic surgeon, provides a high-level overview of our 7.0mm & 8.0mm Cannulated Fastener System, featuring Unifi Mechanical Integration (UnifiMI) and discusses the clinical relevance of a 16mm washer.
The UnifiMI 24mm thread length provides superior performance in osteoporotic bone. Dr. Weaver shares the research on why this is the ideal thread length.
