The 6 5/16″ Foot Plate Hook 0.4mm is a specialized orthopedic surgical instrument designed for precision handling, positioning, and stabilization of foot plates and small fixation implants during orthopedic trauma and reconstructive procedures. It is widely used in foot and ankle surgery where accurate implant placement is essential for proper bone alignment and optimal patient recovery.

Featuring an ultra-fine 0.4mm hook tip, this instrument allows surgeons to engage very small plates and hardware with exceptional accuracy. The fine tip design ensures secure grip and controlled manipulation, reducing the risk of slippage during delicate surgical steps. This level of precision is particularly important in complex foot and ankle reconstructions where millimeter-level accuracy impacts surgical success.

With an overall length of 6 5/16 inches, the Foot Plate Hook 0.4mm provides excellent reach and balance, enabling surgeons to operate comfortably in deep or narrow surgical fields. Its elongated structure enhances maneuverability while maintaining precise tactile feedback, ensuring consistent control throughout the procedure.

The hook is designed to facilitate smooth engagement with orthopedic implants and bone surfaces, allowing for precise alignment and stabilization of foot plates. This makes it highly effective in trauma fixation surgeries where accurate positioning of hardware is critical for restoring anatomical structure and function.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument ensures high durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. Its polished surface finish promotes smooth handling, easy cleaning, and efficient sterilization. The robust construction allows the instrument to withstand repeated autoclave cycles without losing structural integrity or precision performance.

The 6 5/16″ Foot Plate Hook 0.4mm is commonly used in orthopedic trauma surgery, reconstructive foot procedures, and implant fixation operations. It assists surgeons in placing, adjusting, and stabilizing small bone plates with enhanced accuracy, improving overall surgical efficiency and outcomes.

Ergonomically designed, the instrument provides a secure grip that reduces hand fatigue during prolonged surgical procedures. Its balanced design ensures superior control, making it suitable for both routine orthopedic surgeries and highly complex reconstructive cases.

This instrument is fully reusable and designed for repeated clinical use in hospitals, orthopedic centers, and surgical facilities. Its durable construction ensures consistent performance across multiple sterilization cycles, making it a cost-effective and dependable addition to orthopedic surgical instrument sets.

Engineered for precision and reliability, the Foot Plate Hook 0.4mm meets the demanding requirements of modern orthopedic surgery. It combines fine-tip accuracy, ergonomic efficiency, and surgical-grade durability, making it an essential tool for foot and ankle fixation procedures.
