Design and Application
The Small T Oblique Plate delivers small-fragment orthopedic bone fixation with an angled head design. Surgeons typically turn to this configuration when a straight T-plate can’t follow the bone’s natural contour, because the oblique T-shaped head sets the crossbar at an angle relative to the plate shaft. As a result, the plate seats more precisely in areas where fracture patterns call for an angled fixation profile. For instance, in periarticular distal radius fractures, surgeons often select this style of plate for exactly this reason.
Material and Configuration Options
Since material choice affects both handling and cost, the plate comes in two options: premium surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium. In addition, buyers can choose from 2-hole through 12-hole configurations, with cortical screw compatibility spanning 1.5 mm to 4.5 mm. Together, these options let hospitals, distributors, and surgical suppliers match plate length and screw diameter to the specific fixation area they’re treating.
Key Features
- Oblique T-shaped head that angles fixation for small bone fragments
- Choice of premium surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium
- Hole configurations ranging from 2 holes (39 mm) to 12 holes (199 mm)
- Compatible cortical screws from 1.5 mm to 4.5 mm
- Multiple hole counts so buyers can match plate length to the fixation area
Applications
Surgeons generally use the Small T Oblique Plate for internal fixation of small bone fractures, osteotomies, and nonunions, particularly where an angled T-configuration improves plate positioning along the bone surface. Because the design targets procedures with limited bone surface area, it also supports precise contouring and screw placement in cases where that precision affects the outcome.
