The X-Shaped Locking Plate is a low-profile titanium fixation plate specifically designed for foot and ankle procedures.
Engineered with a multi-directional locking screw mechanism, it enables stable angle fixation without compressing the plate to the bone, preserving local blood supply and enhancing fracture healing.
This plate is available in 2.4 mm, 3.0 mm, and 3.6 mm screw configurations and is suitable for internal fixation of foot and ankle fractures, especially in complex anatomical areas requiring multidirectional stability.
● 20° Conical Locking Holes: Designed to accept corresponding threaded-head locking screws for strong angular stability.
● Self-Tapping Screw Design: Sharp cutting flutes on screw tips eliminate the need for pre-tapping, simplifying surgical steps.
● Anodized Surface Treatment: Color-coded and corrosion-resistant, enhancing screw visibility and biocompatibility.
● Low-Profile Contoured Design: Rounded edges and highly polished surface reduce soft tissue irritation and promote easier subcutaneous placement.
● Anatomical Plate Geometry: The plate shape is tailored for the specific anatomy of the foot and ankle, ensuring better conformity and ease of placement.
● Firm Angular Stability: Locking screw heads securely engage the 20° conical threaded holes, forming a stable screw-plate-bone construct.
● Reduced Soft Tissue Complications: The ultra-low-profile, polished contour design minimizes the risk of tendon and soft tissue irritation.
● Enhanced Fixation Strength: Compared to conventional screws, the locking screws feature a large core diameter and shallow threads, improving purchase in bone and enhancing mechanical strength.
● Optimized for Targeted Indications: The size range (2.4 mm, 3.0 mm, 3.6 mm) allows surgeons to select the appropriate plate for small bone fractures while ensuring rigid fixation.
