Conmed Poplok 2.8/3.3mm Drill Bit BKL-00M
The PopLok Drill Bit 2.8/3.3 mm (catalog BKL-00M) is a specialised surgical drill bit designed for use with the PopLok knotless suture anchor system. It supports both the 2.8 mm and 3.3 mm anchor diameters in one tool. This drill bit is intended to create the pilot hole necessary for seating the anchor in arthroscopic soft-tissue to bone fixation procedures.
This drill bit BKL-00M is designed specifically to accommodate the dual anchor diameters of 2.8 mm and 3.3 mm in the PopLok knotless suture anchor system, making it a versatile instrumentation choice for surgeons working with those anchor sizes. By using the same drill bit for both sizes, it simplifies inventory and reduces the number of instruments required in the OR. The tool is part of the PopLok system from CONMED Corporation, which emphasises minimal bone removal and knotless fixation for arthroscopic repairs. Accurate pilot-hole preparation is critical to the anchor’s performance because the anchor’s wings deploy sub-cortically and the suture-locking mechanism functions best when the pilot hole is appropriately sized.
