B-Screw TCP Interference Screws

The B-Screw TCP is a biocomposite interference screw specifically engineered to meet the needs of surgeons. The B-Screw is made from Polyal®, a biocomposite material consisting of 70% PLA and 30% β-TCP, and is designed for:
• Fixation of soft tissue and bone–tendon grafts
• Ligament reconstruction across a wide range of surgical procedures

Main features and benefits:

  • Polyal1 – a safe and proven biocomposite material that is mechanically robust, radiolucent, bioresorbable, and osteoconductive – supports bone regeneration
  • High torque resistance2 – transfers torque more effectively than standard hexagonal driver geometries – reliable insertion even in hard bone
  • Self-tapping3 – tapered tip and unique thread pattern eliminate the need for a tap – quick and easy starting
  • Double-thread design – two independent threads reduce the number of turns required for screw insertion – faster and more efficient insertion
  • Internal configuration – screw and driver design shifts torsional stress from the screw to the driver, improving performance during insertion – tactile feedback and reproducibility
  • Complete size range – available in 6 diameters and 4 lengths; suitable for various procedures – versatility
