The Torque Limiters permit safe screw insertion and tightening with a defined torque of 0.4 Nm or 0.8 Nm. The Torque Limiters may be used with every screw-plate fracture fixation system where a torque of less than 0.4 or 0.8 Nm is recommended, eg, 2.0, 2.4 and 2.7 mm Locking Head Screws for Compact Hand System, Compact Foot Systems, Distal Humerus Plates, Distal Radius Plates, or the UniLOCK System.
The Torque Limiter feature quick coupling for easy fixation of drill bits and screwdrivers for AO Quick Coupling Shaft or Mini Quick Coupling Shaft.
