    Product Description
    The Bio-FASTak is a 3 mm x 14 mm bioabsorbable threaded suture anchor ideal for multiple indications in the shoulder, knee, elbow and ankle. The exclusive braided suture eyelet loop is molded into the body of the anchor and provides superior resistance to suture abrasion compared to conventional metal anchors. This unique eyelet design allows the attached suture to slide smoothly enhancing the performance of arthroscopic sliding-knots. The Bio-FASTak is available with either one or two #2 FiberWire sutures or with one polyester Tevdek suture. A needle version is also available. All of the Bio-FASTaks are sterile and preloaded on a disposable handled inserter for speed and convenience. Bio-FASTak implants are inserted using the instruments in the standard instrument set (AR-1327S). It is recommended that the optional short tap and optional short guide be used with the Bio-FASTak w/Needles. The Spear with trocar is used for percutaneous insertion or through a cannula. The Conical Point Obturator is then used to make a small pilot hole and to provide a coined surface to avoid skiving of the tap, which is always used. Two other cannulated inserters are available: the Offset Clear Guide and the Cannulated Bio-FASTak Guide. The optional pin for the Portal Dilation Set is used through a percutaneous approach followed by the Portal Dilator for Bio-FASTak and then by the Bio-FASTak Spear.
