The 3.0 mm Headless Compression Screw is a self-drilling, self-tapping headless screw that allows for surgeon controlled compression. The shaft and head advance at the same rate. The head design allows the screw to act as a lag screw.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Design of screw allows it to act as a lag screw
  • Color-coded screw driver gives feedback of screw position
  • T8 StarDrive - improved torque transmission
  • One piece - faster technique and no toggle as fracture resorbs
  • 3.5mm Trailing thread  - smaller effect on articular surface

  • Fixation of intra-articular and extra-articular fractures and nonunions of small bones and small bone fragments
  • Arthrodeses of small joints
  • Bunionectomies and osteotomies
