The CareFix Breakable Pin (Snap-Off Screw) is a titanium alloy implant with pre-scored notches and a self-drilling tip, engineered for minimally invasive fixation of hand/foot fractures and temporary stabilization in small bone procedures. Specifically designed for lesser metatarsal fractures and delicate bone structures, this implant features a snap-off shank that is cleanly broken after insertion, eliminating protruding hardware while ensuring secure anchorage in cancellous bone. Its high-strength titanium alloy construction allows for precise intraoperative control, making it ideal for procedures requiring minimal soft tissue disruption.
Internal fixation of 2nd–5th lesser metatarsal fractures
Fixation of small bone fractures (phalanges, carpal bones)
Temporary stabilization in minimally invasive procedures (intra-articular reduction)
Supplemental fixation in bone grafting procedures
Controlled intraoperative snap-off: Pre-scored notches enable clean breakage with minimal bone stress.
Self-drilling tip: Eliminates pre-drilling for efficient cortical penetration.
Biocompatible titanium alloy: Corrosion-resistant and MRI-safe.
