VERSABOND^◊ is a medium viscosity bone cement which can be used for hip, knee, and shoulder implant fixation.VERSABOND^◊ has superior handling and mechanical properties. VERSABOND^◊ is optimized for vacuum mixing, but can also be hand-mixed with few air inclusions and no powder clumping. VERSABOND^◊ meets customer needs by working well with cement gun/syringe delivery systems or by manual application.

VERSABOND^◊ is not Gamma Sterilized like some other bone cements on the market. To retain its fatigue strength and high molecular weight,VERSABOND^◊ is EtO sterilized. It has low porosity levels which contribute to improved cement performance.

VERSABOND^◊ also features unique packaging to help avoid potential pitfalls during the cement-mixing technique. The packaging provides a clean, easy way to pour the powder with its unique Tyvek* covered cement powder boat. This mechanism eliminates spillage and difficult-to-open pouches. In addition, the blister pack is completely sterile so it holds the glass monomer bottles in a protective package until it is time to mix. This minimizes any chance of the monomer bottles breaking on the sterile table.
