Suture Anchors with DURABRAID Suture

Strength and Security

DURABRAID^◊ SUTURE

TWINFIX^◊SUTURE ANCHOR come preloaded with #2 DURABRAID^◊SUTURE. DURABRAID^◊SUTURE is a unique brand of Smith & Nephew braided polyester suture.

DURABRAID^◊SUTURE is the perfect mix of strength, feel, sliding ability, and knot security for shoulder surgeons performing arthroscopic or mini-open procedures. DURABRAID^◊SUTURE requires no special cutting instruments.

Flexibility and Options

TWINFIX^◊SUTURE ANCHORS are offered in a variety of sizes and materials, with needles and without, depending on your technique and requirements.

Anchor Design

Tapered anchor body is mated to the dilator to reduce the insertion torque thereby reducing anchor breakage. Suture eyelets are located deeper in the anchor body to reduce suture pullout under cyclic loading.

New Inserter Handle

TWINFIX^{^◊}Ti and TWINFIX^◊AB SUTURE ANCHORS have a newly designed inserter handle that meets the changing needs of the arthroscopic surgeon. This robust handle provides new capabilities that give you more control in deploying Smith & Nephew suture anchors, when and where you need them.

Improved suture track - Ensures smooth suture release.

External suture posts - Protects and controls the sutures.

Physical mechanism for grasping sutures - Securely holds anchor on the tip of inserter

Flat handle surface - Makes it easy to tap/strike with mallet.
