    Product Description
    Much stronger than stainless steel in yield strength, and 25% higher in ultimate tensile strength.

    Selftapping titanium screws allow for easy insertion, increased strength, and are available in 10 lengths.

    In addition, the combined mechanical properties of high strength and a lower modulus of elasticity allow the Uniflex Nail to offer a potential reduction of implant failure and improved stimulation of fracture healing.

    Distal screw holes are positioned to capture fragments close to the femoral condyles.
