  • Features and Benefits

Features Benefits
Release Mechanism  Allows the nail to be easily removed from the drill guide. The rounded tip of the guide bolt wrench slips down the slot at the top of the drill guide to locate the guide bolt and disengage the bolt from the nail. This feature is especially convenient when managing a large amount of soft tissue.
Simple Attachments for Guides  The Hip, Knee and 8.5 mm FAN guide attachments are designed to attach to the drill guide in only one way. 
Knurled Knobs The knurled knobs make it easy to secure the guide-attachments to the drill guide. Also, the knobs have holes that allow an instrument to be inserted for additional leverage for tightening and untightening.
