Veterinary 6 Hole Gap Stabilization Locking Plate 2.0 mm for Small Animal Orthopedics

Description

This veterinary six-hole gap stabilization locking plate is developed for advanced skeletal support in small animal orthopedic surgery where controlled biological healing is required. Designed to function with a 2.0 mm locking fixation platform, the implant provides fixed-angle stability while incorporating a central spacing element that supports indirect fracture repair. The straight alignment and gap-centered architecture allow stabilization without applying compressive forces across the fracture site.

The plate incorporates six locking fixation interfaces distributed evenly on either side of the central gap. This configuration allows balanced load transfer and enhanced resistance to torsional stress during post-operative limb use. The locking mechanism creates a rigid screw–plate construct, reducing the risk of loosening and maintaining alignment throughout the healing period. This design is especially advantageous in veterinary patients with active behavior patterns or fragile bone structures.

Available in 8 mm, 10 mm, and 12 mm lengths, the implant offers adaptability for varying bone dimensions and fracture locations. These size options enable veterinary surgeons to select an appropriately scaled implant for short to mid-length bone segments while maintaining optimal fixation strength. The linear profile assists in preserving anatomical axis alignment, contributing to predictable skeletal recovery.

The slim, low-contact surface design reduces interaction with surrounding soft tissues, helping to minimize irritation and post-surgical discomfort. Rounded transitions around the locking apertures support smooth screw insertion and atraumatic handling during implantation. Such features are essential in veterinary orthopedics, where soft tissue preservation directly influences recovery outcomes.

Six-hole gap stabilization plates are commonly applied in veterinary fracture bridging, staged fixation, and corrective alignment procedures where controlled load sharing is preferred. By maintaining separation at the fracture interface, the plate promotes callus formation and natural bone regeneration while retaining mechanical stability. This approach aligns with modern veterinary orthopedic principles focused on biological healing.

Manufactured specifically for veterinary surgical use, this 2.0 mm locking plate integrates seamlessly with standard veterinary fixation instruments. Its precision engineering, versatile sizing, and reliable biomechanical performance make it a dependable choice for veterinary clinics and hospitals managing complex small animal fracture cases.
