Explore our clinical-grade orthopedic portfolio manufactured under strict ISO 13485 cleanroom conditions, engineered specifically for trauma centers, surgical distributors, and private hospital networks across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and the wider GCC region.
In modern orthopedic trauma surgery, internal fracture fixation requires absolute spatial accuracy, rotational stability, and controlled interfragmentary compression. As a premier Cannulated Screw System Manufacturer and OEM Factory servicing the United Arab Emirates (UAE), our engineering design focuses on overcoming the primary failure modes of cannulated hardware: guide wire binding, thread stripping under osteopenic conditions, and stress concentration at the head-shaft junction.
Cannulated screws are hollow-core threaded fasteners designed to be navigated precisely over a pre-placed Kirschner wire (K-wire). This minimally invasive technique is vital for articular surfaces, pelvic reconstruction, scaphoid fixations, and femoral neck fractures. The structural integrity of a cannulated screw depends heavily on the ratio between its inner cannulation lumen diameter and outer thread diameter. Our state-of-the-art multi-axis Swiss CNC lathes achieve a concentricity tolerance within ±0.015 mm, eliminating wall thickness variations that cause structural micro-fractures under bending moments.
Clinical Insight: Concentric lumen drilling prevents eccentricity issues during intra-operative insertion over 1.1mm to 2.8mm guide wires. This ensures smooth passage through dense cortical bone and reduces surgeon fatigue during emergency trauma operations.
| Screw Variant | Outer Diameter (mm) | Cannulation Hole (mm) | Guide Wire Size (mm) | Thread Type & Profile | Primary Clinical Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Micro Cannulated Screw | 2.4 mm / 3.0 mm | 1.1 mm - 1.2 mm | 1.0 mm / 1.1 mm | Reverse Buttress / Self-Tapping | Scaphoid, Hand & Wrist, Metatarsal Fractures |
| Mini Cannulated Screw | 3.5 mm / 4.0 mm | 1.4 mm - 1.5 mm | 1.25 mm / 1.35 mm | Partial / Full Threaded Hexalobular | Medial Malleolus, Radial Head, Calcaneous Fixation |
| Standard Trauma Screw | 4.5 mm / 5.0 mm | 1.8 mm - 2.0 mm | 1.6 mm / 1.8 mm | Deep Cut Cortical / Cancellous Thread | Tibial Plateau, Femoral Condyle, Glenoid Reconstruction |
| Large Cannulated Screw | 6.5 mm / 7.3 mm | 3.0 mm - 3.2 mm | 2.5 mm / 2.8 mm | Low-Pitch Reverse Buttress Compression | Intracapsular Femoral Neck Fractures, SI Joint Disruption |
All screws are fabricated from medical-grade Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI per ASTM F136) or Commercially Pure Titanium (CP-Ti Grade 4 per ASTM F67). Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) offers superior fatigue strength (yield strength > 860 MPa) and a modulus of elasticity closer to natural bone compared to traditional 316L stainless steel, significantly mitigating stress shielding effects. Furthermore, titanium exhibits exceptional biocompatibility, zero magnetic interference during Post-Operative MRI diagnostics, and minimal artifact distortion.
Our production floor utilizes Citizen and Star multi-axis CNC sliding-headstock lathes. This allows simultaneous micro-machining of internal cannulation threads, self-drilling cutting flutes, and low-profile Torx drive sockets in a single operation setup to eliminate axial misalignment.
Cleanroom processing is critical for orthopedics. All cannulated hardware passes through multi-frequency ultrasonic cleaning stages to purge cutting fluids and debris from internal cannulation bores prior to electrochemical anodization and Class 7 cleanroom packaging.
We provide full support for medical device registration under the UAE Ministry of Health & Prevention (MOHAP). Importers receive full technical files, including STED dossiers, ISO 13485:2016 certificates, CE mark conformity (MDR 2017/745), and raw material melt certs.
The United Arab Emirates has rapidly transformed into a world-class hub for medical excellence, driven by government initiatives such as the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) Strategic Plan and the Department of Health Abu Dhabi (DoH) healthcare transformation roadmaps. High-standard trauma units across public facilities (like Rashid Hospital in Dubai and Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City in Abu Dhabi) as well as premier private healthcare networks (such as Mediclinic, Aster DM Healthcare, and Burjeel Holdings) demand premium-grade orthopedic implants with zero failure tolerance.
With major highway networks (E11, E311) handling high-density traffic, emergency trauma suites frequently treat complex periarticular and pelvic fractures. Partially threaded 6.5mm and 7.3mm cannulated compression screws allow precise lag-screw fixation of femoral neck fractures under fluoroscopic guidance.
The UAE’s expanding sports and fitness culture (equestrian sports, football leagues, endurance races) drives demand for micro and mini cannulated screw systems. Screws with low-profile countersunk heads prevent tendon impingement during scaphoid fracture repair and osteochondral autograft transfers.
Addressing the high regional incidence of Type II diabetes, specialized foot and ankle surgical teams utilize 4.0mm and 4.5mm headless cannulated compression screws for midfoot arthrodesis and tarsometatarsal joint stabilization to prevent Charcot deformities.
Surgical Technique Advantages: Our cannulated screws feature specialized self-drilling tip geometries with sharp cutting flutes that eliminate separate tapping steps in cancellous bone. The self-tapping profile reduces operating room time, lowers thermal necrosis risks, and optimizes compression efficiency across the fracture gap.
Procuring medical hardware directly from an established China OEM factory provides UAE healthcare suppliers, tender bidders, and surgical device brand owners with substantial competitive advantages:
