ARC-Lock -Contour Locking Screw Technology
Arc-Lock™ Contour Locking Screw Technology utilizes the natural curvature of Lapiplasty® Biplanar Plates and the pitch compression ratio of locking screw to deliver joint compression1 while maintaining the stability of locking plate fixation.
Plate Compression
High pitch compression ratio compress the plate to the bone as screws lock in.1
Far Cortex Compression
Increased thread pitch results in 33% faster screw insertion.2
Angular Correction
Locking screws compatible with all Lapiplasty® plating systems.*
1. Pre-Contoured Curved Plate
Pre-contoured curvature of the Lapiplasty® Biplanar™ Locking Plate with the center arc of the plate off the bone.
2. Plate Compress to Bone
Locking screws automatically compress the curved plate to the bone as the screws lock in.1
3. Elastic Rebound Compresses Joint
Elastic rebound of the compressed, curved plate results in angular correction and compression of the far cortex.3
