Design rationale

Streamlined instrumentation

The instrument set is organised around the steps of the nailing technique. One handle carries the connecting guide bar, the distal guide bar and the distal outrigger. The same handle takes the driver-extractor, so insertion and extraction use the same assembly.

Distal locking with an outrigger

The distal outrigger and stabilising rod guide aim the locking screws. Dynamic locking is set with a locking block that clicks onto the T-handled stabilising rod.
