Color-Coded Washers for Surgical Procedures
The TRAX compression screw system includes color-coded washers for use with the 3mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm, and 6.5mm headed screws. Washers may be used to optimize compression and minimize the risk of unintentional intrusion of the screw head through cortical bone during screw insertion.

Our headed compression screw line also includes a 2.0mm diameter break-away screw, ideal for small bones and fragments or where small screws are desired for optimum bone reconstruction, repair, osteotomy, and fusion. Configurations and specifications include:
- 11mm, 12mm, 13mm, and 14mm lengths
- Threads designed for rapid insertion into cancellous bone
- Break-away design to minimize prominence and lessen risk of soft tissue irritation
- Self-tapping and self-drilling.
