Slotted Nail Driver – Surgical Wire Instrument – 11-1729-21

21.5cm 8 1 /4″
When a nail or similar fixation component must be driven with controlled impact, Article 11-1729-21 Slotted Nail Driver provides a dedicated interface between the striking instrument and the implant component. The product is listed at 21.5 cm, or approximately 8 1/4 inches, giving the surgeon a practical working length for positioning and impact transmission. It fits within the wider range of bone surgery instruments used for orthopedic fixation.
The slotted design is particularly relevant because it provides a defined contact arrangement around the compatible nail or fixation element. Rather than relying on a generic striking surface, a dedicated driver helps keep the impact directed through the intended component.

The 21.5 cm length gives the operator enough working reach while remaining compact enough for controlled handling around the surgical field. During impact-driven procedures, maintaining alignment between the driver and the component is important because an unstable interface can compromise force transmission.
This instrument can be useful in orthopedic trauma environments where nail-related fixation techniques require a dedicated driving instrument. It also gives operating teams a clearly identifiable tool for tray preparation, reducing reliance on improvised alternatives.
The page does not specify material, surface finish, or sterilization method, so those characteristics should be confirmed with Next Edge Surgical before procurement.
