Locking Connecting Plate System
Extremity & Reconstruction PlatesThe Locking Connecting Plate System is designed to bridge and stabilise complex, multi-fragment fracture patterns where standard anatomic plates cannot span the full length of comminution. Available in 3.5mm and 5.0mm platforms, the connecting plate links proximal and distal fixation zones while a dedicated locking connecting screw maintains angular stability across the bridging span.
Technical Specifications
| Plate Diameter | 3.5 mm, 5.0 mm |
| Application | Bridging comminuted diaphyseal fractures |
| Screw Type | Locking connecting screw |
| Construct | Bridge plating |
Key Clinical Features
- Dual Diameter Options — 3.5mm and 5.0mm connecting plates address a wide range of bone diameters and load demands.
- Bridging Construct Capability — spans comminuted diaphyseal segments where standard anatomic plates are insufficient.
- Locking Screw Compatibility — dedicated locking connecting screws maintain angular stability at each fixation point.
- Versatile Length Options — multiple plate lengths accommodate variable comminution zone lengths.
- Simplified Construct Planning — straightforward geometry reduces preoperative templating complexity for bridging constructs.
