Item Description

• KMedic® Wire Twisters and Benders / Cable and Pin Cutters
• Wire Bender

• The KMedic® Gratloch™ Wire Bender is designed to enable single-handed stabilization and bending of a Kirschner wire simultaneously. The unique design allows K-Wire to be bent close to the bone without sacrificing fracture or osteotomy stability.
• TO BEND WIRE:
• 1. After the insertion of K-Wire in the bone, cut the wire, leaving a piece of 1/2" to 3/4" in length.
• 2. Insert the K-Wire into angled slot of Gratloch™ Bender as close to the bone as possible.
• 3. Press handles to bend wire (0.062" wire will bend 90 degrees; smaller diameters will bend slightly less than 90 degrees).
• 4. Additional features of the Gratloch™ Wire Bender are two angled cannulations at the proximal end of each handle for flush bending of wire (0.045" and 0.062").
