Acutrak 2 - 5.5

Sized for larger indications, the Acutrak 2 - 5.5 (5.5mm) is the most recent addition to Acumed’s family of Acutrak Headless Compression Screws. Using Acumed’s advanced instrumentation and straightforward surgical technique, many surgeons consider Acutrak the “gold standard” for fixation of fractures, fusions and osteotomies of the upper and lower extremities.

Key Features

• Large guide wires (.062”): Stout guide wires enable provisional stabilization of the fixation site and allow accurate screw placement.
• Large hex drivers (3.0mm): Surgeon-friendly instrumentation with an improved driver handle maximizes comfort.
• Self-drilling screw tip: The self-drilling Acutrak 2 – 5.5 cuts its way into the bone, eliminating concerns about over-drilling.
• Fully-threaded length: The Acutrak 2 – 5.5 better handles the cyclic loading that may occur during healing.
• Variable thread pitch: The Acutrak 2 – 5.5 tip penetrates the bone faster than finer trailing threads, gradually compressing fragments as the screw is advanced.
• Cannulation: The Acutrak 2 – 5.5 is designed for accurate percutaneous insertion with minimal soft tissue dissection.
