Conmed Sentinel Drill Bits 12mm dia. S8512
The Sentinel Drill Bit 12 mm (CAT # S8512) is a sterile, single-use cannulated orthopedic drill bit designed to create a 12.0 mm diameter bone tunnel in ligament reconstruction surgery. It features a standard working length (~229 mm) to suit femoral or tibial tunnel preparation. This instrument is engineered for precision and joint-preserving surgical techniques.
The Sentinel Drill Bit 12 mm (S8512) belongs to the Sentinel series engineered for anatomical ligament reconstruction such as ACL/PCL procedures. Its mono-fluted, cannulated design allows the drill to pass over a 2.4 mm guide pin and provides controlled, consistent tunnel creation. The device includes a 270° smooth shaft surface to help protect the medial femoral condyle during medial-portal drilling approaches. Packaged sterile and intended for single-use, it supports high efficiency in the operating room while reducing risk of instrument fatigue or cross-contamination.
