Conmed Propel Cannulated Interference Screws 7mm x 20mm, 3.5mm Hex C8700
Propel Cannulated Interference Screw (7 mm × 20 mm, 3.5 mm hex) is a sterile, single-use implant used in orthopaedic graft fixation. It is cannulated to allow placement over a guidewire for precise positioning. It is designed to secure soft tissue or grafts into bone tunnels during reconstructive procedures.
This interference screw features a spiral tip design that helps to minimize divergence and ensures more reliable fixation. It is manufactured by ConMed / Linvatec and intended for use in ligament reconstruction, such as ACL or PCL surgeries, where graft fixation is critical. The cannulated design (hollow core) enables insertion over a guidewire to facilitate accurate alignment and reduce the risk of graft disruption. Because it is produced sterile and labeled for single use, it reduces cross-contamination risk and simplifies surgical logistics.
