Self Tapping Locking Screw 2.4mm for Small Fragment Locking Plate Fixation

Description

The Self-Tapping Locking Screw 2.4mm is a vital component in small fragment locking plate systems, developed to deliver reliable angular stability and controlled fixation in orthopedic trauma and reconstructive procedures. By locking directly into the threaded plate hole, the screw creates a fixed-angle construct that enhances overall stability and minimizes dependence on bone quality alone.

Manufactured from high-quality stainless steel and titanium alloy, the screw offers excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. Its self-tapping thread design eliminates the need for pre-tapping, streamlining surgical workflow and reducing operative time. Precision-machined threads ensure smooth insertion and consistent engagement with cortical bone, supporting dependable fixation across a range of anatomical regions.

With a thread diameter of 2.7mm and a core diameter of 2.0mm, the screw is optimized to balance strength and flexibility. This configuration provides secure bone purchase while reducing the risk of fatigue failure under functional loading. The 3.5mm locking head is engineered to interface accurately with compatible 2.4mm locking plates, ensuring stable load transfer and resistance to micro-motion at the plate–bone interface.

Available in lengths ranging from 6mm to 30mm, the Self-Tapping Locking Screw 2.4mm supports precise fixation in small bones and delicate anatomical structures. This range allows surgeons to select the optimal screw length for metaphyseal or diaphyseal fixation while maintaining consistent construct integrity. Compatibility with a 2.0mm drill bit ensures predictable preparation and accurate screw placement.

Widely used in small fragment orthopedic fixation, the 2.4mm Self-Tapping Locking Screw contributes to stable constructs, reduced screw loosening, and improved healing outcomes. Its precision engineering, material reliability, and ease of use make it a dependable choice for surgeons utilizing locking compression plate systems in demanding clinical environments.
