SOFTFIX-PK® Interference Screw, PEEK

• SOFTFIX-PK® Interference Screws provide strong mechanical fixation for both bone patellar tendon-bone (BTB) and soft tissue grafts in ACL and PCL reconstruction.

• SOFTFIX-PK® Interference Screws feature a thread pattern that allows for a simple surgical technique, with minimal tunnel preparation.

• Non-absorbable SOFTFIX-PK® interference screw incorporates PEEK-VESTAKEEP® polymer from Evonik®.

• PEEK-VESTAKEEP® material exhibits an ideal combination of strength, stiffness and toughness which surpasses absorbable materials.

• PEEK (Poly-Ether-Ether-Ketone) is a thermoplastic material with excellent biocompatibility and bio stability characteristics as per ASTM F2026.

• SOFTFIX-PK® interference screws offer the revision ability of an absorbable screw.

• PEEK has inherent radiolucent characteristics that have widely gained confidence and acceptance in the medical community.
