SCHANZS SCREW 5.0 X 150MM

The Schanz Screw is a critical orthopedic implant used primarily for external fixation and fracture stabilization. Manufactured from high-grade medical stainless steel or titanium, these screws feature a sharp, self-tapping thread design that ensures secure purchase in the bone cortex. They provide the essential skeletal anchorage required to maintain anatomical alignment during the healing process.

Designed with a robust shank to resist bending and shear forces, Schanz screws are available in various diameters and lengths to suit both human and veterinary surgical applications. Their specialized point allows for precise insertion with minimal bone trauma, while the hexagonal or square head ensures compatibility with standard T-handle drivers and fixation clamps.

Fully autoclavable and biocompatible, these screws are engineered to remain stable under high-load conditions. The smooth surface finish reduces the risk of soft tissue irritation and facilitates easier removal once the bone has consolidated. Whether used in pelvic stabilization or long-bone fracture management, the Schanz screw is a fundamental component for reliable external fixation systems.
