Conmed Bio Instability Twist Drill Bit, 2.1mm C6179
The C6179 is a 2.1 mm diameter twist drill bit designed for the Bio Instability anchor/repair system. It is intended to create a precise pilot hole in bone for small-footprint fixation implants. The instrument supports minimally-invasive arthroscopic applications.
This 2.1 mm twist-drill bit (catalog number C6179) is part of the Bio Instability instrumentation line and is engineered to provide an accurate and consistent pilot hole for the matching anchor system. The twist geometry helps efficient bone removal while maintaining control and minimal trauma in constrained joint environments. When used according to system instructions, it ensures optimal seating of the small-footprint anchors and supports secure soft-tissue to bone fixation. Note the manufacturer’s guidance: “Not to be used with other specified drill bits” such as the C6175 or C6179 in incompatible systems.
