Devices are manufactured from implant-grade stainless steel. Used by surgeons in clinical settings for bone fracture fixation, joint fusion, bone reconstruction, or as guide pins for other implants. Pins feature smooth or self-drilling/self-tapping threaded designs with diamond tips. System includes manual accessory tools: depth gauge, tissue protection triple guide, T-shape handle chuck, and drill bits. Devices are provided non-sterile and require sterilization by the user prior to implantation. Intended for single-patient use only. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on design, material, and intended use comparisons to the predicate device. ## Technological Characteristics Materials: Stainless Steel 316 LS/LVM. Configurations: Kirschner pins (1.6–2.5mm diameter), Schanz screws (2.5–6mm diameter), Steinmann pins (3.5–5mm diameter), and Conic pins. Features: Smooth or self-drilling/self-tapping threaded pins with diamond tips. Sterilization: Non-sterile, requires user sterilization. Accessory tools: Depth gauge, tissue protection guide, chuck, drill bits. ## Regulatory Identification A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system. ## Predicate Devices - Treu-Instrumente GmbH Bone Fixation Screws and Pins (k083912) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
