The titanium cannulated screws of aap are manufactured from a high-strength alloying. This means an optimal connection of bio-compatibility and strength of the screws.

Labeled Screw Head

The labeling of the screw head with laser technology gives the user safety by the retraceability of the implant. Every screw head is in addition provided clearly readable with the detail of the screw length in mm.

Self Cutting (forwards and backwards)

The thread is cut by the screw. The cut in the backward direction makes it easy for the explantation of the screw also at threads ingrown.

Self drilling

Through the distinctive cut of the milling flanks the screw drills easily and surely into the bone. One work step and therefore valuable operation time is saved.

Drilling

All cannulated screws can be lead with a Kirschner wire. This prerequisite for an exact positioning of the screw and a stable fixation.

aap offers the cannulated screw systems in eight diameters with reinforced leading wires. The small sizes with the thread diameters 2.0 mm, 2.7 mm, 3.5 mm, 4.0 mm and 4.5 mm are available short and full threaded respectively. These systems can individually be combined on a standard sieve.


By the module style and the coloring of the implants and instruments the systems are sure and comfortable in handling.


The cannulated screws with the thread diameters of 7.5 mm are available with three thread lengths.


The standard lengths of 16 and 32 mm can be combined with the particularly short thread lengths of 8 mm. Here the instruments are also coordinated optimally on one another and arranged very clearly on a standard sieve.
