The A.O. Type 2.0mm External Fixator for Radius & Ulna – Surgical Instrument is a specialized orthopedic fixation system engineered to provide reliable external skeletal stabilization for fractures involving the radius and ulna. Designed in accordance with AO fixation principles, this system enables orthopedic surgeons to achieve precise fracture alignment while maintaining stable fixation throughout the healing process.

Specifically developed for forearm trauma, this external fixator is commonly used in the management of distal radius fractures, ulna fractures, open fractures, comminuted fractures, corrective osteotomies, and temporary stabilization of complex upper extremity injuries. Its compact design makes it particularly suitable for the anatomical requirements of the forearm and wrist while allowing effective stabilization with minimal disruption to surrounding soft tissues.

Manufactured from premium O.R. grade stainless steel, the fixation components offer outstanding mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting durability. The high-quality materials are engineered to withstand demanding surgical environments and repeated sterilization cycles, ensuring dependable performance in hospitals and orthopedic trauma centers.

The 2.0 mm fixation system provides rigid skeletal support while allowing accurate intraoperative adjustment for optimal fracture reduction. Precision-engineered clamps and connecting components securely stabilize the fixation construct, helping maintain bone alignment during recovery and promoting successful fracture healing.

Designed for ease of use, the system features ergonomic components that simplify assembly, adjustment, and removal. The lightweight yet robust construction allows surgeons to efficiently configure the fixator according to individual fracture patterns and patient anatomy, improving workflow during both emergency and elective orthopedic procedures.

The mirror-polished finish enhances corrosion resistance while facilitating easy cleaning and maintenance. All components are fully autoclavable and compatible with standard hospital sterilization protocols, supporting strict infection control standards and long-term clinical use.

The A.O. Type 2.0 mm External Fixator is an essential solution for orthopedic trauma specialists seeking dependable external fixation for radius and ulna fractures. Its precision engineering, durable construction, and modular design make it a valuable instrument system for achieving stable fracture fixation and improved surgical outcomes.
