Product Explanation
The Locking L Buttress Plate, 5.0 mm is an orthopedic fixation plate intended to form part of a compatible internal fixation construct.
A simplified fixation concept can be represented as:
Prepared Bone → L-Shaped Buttress Plate → Compatible Fixation Screws → Internal Fixation Construct
The product is specifically identified as an:
L Buttress Plate
indicating a plate geometry incorporating a transverse fixation section positioned approximately perpendicular to the longitudinal shaft.
According to the supplied product information, the plate is available in:
Left / Right
configurations.
The product family includes:
3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 Shaft Holes
providing multiple plate configurations.
No numerical Head Holes specification is provided in the supplied product data.
Product Components and Design
- L-Shaped Buttress Plate Body
The implant consists of a metallic fixation plate with a transverse head section connected to an elongated longitudinal shaft.
This creates the characteristic:
L-shaped plate geometry
visible in the supplied product image.
The exact head width, shaft length, plate thickness, contour, bend angles, and anatomical relationship should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s technical drawings.
- Buttress Plate Configuration
The product is specifically designated:
Buttress Plate
according to the supplied product title.
The exact biomechanical role, supported anatomical surface, loading direction, and approved buttress function should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s official surgical technique rather than inferred solely from the product name.
- Transverse Head Section
The transverse portion of the L-shaped plate visibly includes multiple fixation openings.
However, the supplied product table states:
Head Holes: –
Therefore:
Head Holes: Not specified
should be used in the technical sheet.
The exact number, classification, locking characteristics, compatible screw types, and trajectories of the visible head openings should be confirmed from official technical documentation.
- Shaft Section
According to the supplied product information, the plate is available with:
3 Shaft Holes
4 Shaft Holes
5 Shaft Holes
6 Shaft Holes
8 Shaft Holes
10 Shaft Holes
12 Shaft Holes
This provides seven listed shaft-hole configurations within the product family.
The exact physical plate length corresponding to each configuration is not supplied.
- Multiple Fixation Opening Geometries
The supplied product image visually shows different fixation-opening geometries, including:
- Openings within the transverse head.
- Circular / rounded shaft openings.
- Elongated or contoured openings.
- Multiple longitudinal fixation positions.
The exact technical function of each opening—such as locking fixation, conventional fixation, compression, positioning, or another role—is not defined in the supplied product data and should be confirmed from the approved surgical technique.
- Left and Right Configurations
According to the supplied product data, the plate is available in:
Left / Right
versions.
This indicates side-specific variants within the product family.
The exact geometric differences between the Left and Right configurations should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s engineering drawings.
- Material Options
According to the supplied product information, the plate is available in:
SS316L
and
Titanium
The exact Titanium alloy or grade is not specified in the supplied image and should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s official material documentation.
Intended Use
The Locking L Buttress Plate, 5.0 mm is designed for use as part of a compatible orthopedic fixation system according to the approved indications, surgical technique, and Instructions for Use.
The supplied image does not identify the precise anatomical region or approved fracture indication.
Potential use should therefore be described only generally as orthopedic fixation where an L-shaped buttress plate configuration is included within the manufacturer’s approved indications.
The exact anatomical location, fracture pattern, fixation strategy, surgical approach, contraindications, and patient-selection criteria should be confirmed from official product documentation.
Plate selection may depend on factors including:
- Anatomical side.
- Anatomical location.
- Bone dimensions.
- Fracture location and configuration.
- Required buttress fixation.
- Required L-shaped plate geometry.
- Required fixation construct.
- Required shaft-hole configuration.
- Required plate length.
- Bone quality.
- Compatible screw selection.
- Compatible instrumentation.
- Surgical approach.
- Preoperative planning.
- Intraoperative assessment.
The implant should be selected and implanted by a qualified orthopedic surgeon in accordance with the approved surgical technique and Instructions for Use.
Key Benefits
L-Shaped Buttress Configuration
The product is specifically identified as a:
Locking L Buttress Plate
providing a distinct L-shaped fixation geometry within a compatible orthopedic fixation system.
The exact anatomical and biomechanical role of this configuration should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s approved documentation.
Left and Right Anatomical Options
The plate is available in:
Left / Right
configurations, supporting side-specific implant selection.
Seven Shaft-Hole Configurations
The product family includes:
3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 Shaft Holes
providing seven different shaft-hole configurations.
This supports selection among multiple plate variants according to the required fixation construct and surgical plan.
5.0 mm Fixation System
The product is identified as:
Locking L Buttress Plate, 5.0 mm
indicating its association with a compatible 5.0 mm orthopedic fixation system.
The exact compatible screw types and whether all visible openings accept the same screw diameter should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s system documentation.
Two Material Options
According to the supplied product information, the plate is available in:
SS316L
and
Titanium
Multiple Plate-Length Configurations
The available shaft-hole options:
3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 8 → 10 → 12
indicate multiple potential plate-length variants.
The corresponding physical lengths are not supplied and should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s dimensional specifications.
Multiple Product Variants
Based strictly on the supplied product information, the family includes:
- 2 alignment options: Left / Right
- No numerical head-hole configuration specified
- 7 shaft-hole options: 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 8 / 10 / 12
- 2 material options: SS316L / Titanium
If every shaft-hole configuration is available in both alignments and both materials, this could represent up to 28 basic alignment × shaft × material combinations.
However, the supplied image does not provide the complete commercial configuration matrix, so the exact number of available variants should be confirmed from the official Cat. No. table.
