Olive Wire-Bayonet / Trocar Point

Description

Buy the Olive Wire – Bayonet / Trocar Point, an essential fixation component used in Ilizarov, hybrid, and ring external fixator systems.
The olive (enlarged bead) acts as a mechanical stop, enabling controlled fragment transport, compression, distraction, and rotational correction during deformity reconstruction and limb lengthening procedures.

Two tip options are available:

1️⃣ Bayonet Point Wire

• Ideal for easy penetration of cortical bone

• Reduces wobble during insertion

• Facilitates precise wire tracking

2️⃣ Trocar Point Wire

• Features a three-facet sharp tip

• Allows smooth, straight insertion through both cortices

• Minimizes soft-tissue trauma

The olive ensures firm anchorage against bone segments, making these wires critical for managing non-unions, bone defects, deformities, and distraction osteogenesis.

Manufactured from high-strength, corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the wires maintain excellent tension-holding capacity and compatibility with all Ilizarov ring fixator systems.
