Product Explanation
The Locking Head Bone Screw, Self Tapping Ø 2.4 mm is an orthopedic screw intended to form part of a compatible locking plate-and-screw fixation construct.
A simplified fixation concept can be represented as:
Prepared Bone → Compatible Locking Plate → 2.4 mm Locking Head Screw → Locked Plate–Screw Construct
The product combines three principal characteristics:
Locking Head
Self Tapping
Ø 2.4 mm nominal diameter
The locking-head configuration distinguishes this product from a conventional non-locking screw by indicating compatibility with a manufacturer-defined locking interface.
The exact mechanism by which the screw head locks into the plate—such as specific head threading, locking geometry, or another interface—is not defined in the supplied image and should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s technical documentation.
Product Components and Design
- Locking Head
The product is specifically identified as a:
Locking Head Bone Screw
The supplied image visually shows a structured proximal head region consistent with the locking-head designation.
Within a compatible fixation system, the screw head is intended to interface with an appropriate plate hole according to the manufacturer’s approved design.
However, the supplied image does not define:
- Head thread pitch.
- Head thread diameter.
- Locking interface geometry.
- Locking angle.
- Variable-angle capability.
- Compatible plate-hole specification.
These characteristics should therefore be confirmed from the manufacturer’s engineering drawings.
- Ø 2.4 mm Screw Body
The product title specifies:
Ø 2.4 mm
as the nominal screw diameter.
The exact dimensional definition of this value—including whether it corresponds to the major thread diameter or another manufacturer-defined diameter—should be confirmed from the official technical drawing.
The supplied data does not separately specify:
- Core diameter.
- Minor diameter.
- Thread depth.
- Thread pitch.
- Thread profile.
- Self-Tapping Design
The product is specifically identified as:
Self Tapping
indicating a manufacturer-defined self-tapping screw configuration.
The exact:
- Cutting flute geometry.
- Tip design.
- Thread-start geometry.
- Drilling requirements.
- Whether pre-tapping is required in specific situations.
are not defined in the supplied image.
These details should be confirmed from the approved surgical technique.
- Threaded Shaft
The supplied product image shows a threaded shaft extending along a substantial portion of the screw body.
The thread is intended to provide engagement within compatible bone according to the approved fixation technique.
The exact:
- Thread pitch.
- Thread depth.
- Threaded length.
- Lead.
- Thread flank profile.
are not provided in the supplied data.
- Screw Tip
The distal end of the screw incorporates a defined tip associated with the product’s Self Tapping designation.
However, the exact tip angle, cutting flute geometry, and penetration characteristics should not be determined from the image alone.
- Drive Interface
The supplied image shows an insertion interface within the proximal screw head.
However, the exact drive geometry is not specified.
Therefore, the product sheet should not identify it as:
Hex / Torx / Star / Stardrive / other
without official confirmation.
The compatible screwdriver should be obtained from the manufacturer’s system documentation.
Length Configurations
According to the supplied product information:
Length: 10–30 mm (2 mm Variation)
This provides the following configurations:
| No. | Length |
| 1 | 10 mm |
| 2 | 12 mm |
| 3 | 14 mm |
| 4 | 16 mm |
| 5 | 18 mm |

| 11 | 30 mm |
Therefore, the product family includes:
11 length configurations
for the supplied Ø 2.4 mm locking head screw.
Material Options
According to the supplied product data, the screw 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 Head Bone Screw, Self Tapping Ø 2.4 mm is designed for use as part of a compatible locking orthopedic fixation system according to the approved indications, surgical technique, and Instructions for Use.
The supplied catalog places the product under:
Trauma – Tibia
However, the exact approved anatomical applications and compatible plates should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s official system documentation.
Potential use may involve fixation through compatible locking plate holes where a 2.4 mm locking head screw is specified.
Screw selection may depend on factors including:
- Anatomical location.
- Compatible locking plate.
- Plate-hole specification.
- Bone dimensions.
- Required screw diameter.
- Required screw length.
- Bone quality.
- Required fixation construct.
- Screw trajectory.
- Compatible drill.
- Compatible depth gauge.
- Compatible screwdriver.
- Preoperative planning.
- Intraoperative measurement.
The screw should be selected and implanted by a qualified orthopedic surgeon in accordance with the approved surgical technique and Instructions for Use.
Key Benefits
Locking Head Configuration
The screw is specifically identified as a:
Locking Head Bone Screw
indicating compatibility with a manufacturer-defined locking plate interface.
The exact locking mechanism should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s technical documentation.
Self-Tapping Design
The product is specifically identified as:
Self Tapping
providing a defined screw-tip / thread-entry configuration within the screw family.
Ø 2.4 mm Nominal Diameter
The product provides a nominal:
2.4 mm screw diameter
within the compatible orthopedic fixation system.
2 mm Length Increments
The screw lengths increase in:
2 mm increments
throughout the supplied range.
11 Length Configurations
The available lengths are:
10 / 12 / 14 / 16 / 18 / 20 / 22 / 24 / 26 / 28 / 30 mm
providing 11 individual screw-length options.
Two Material Options
According to the supplied product information, the screw is available in:
SS316L
and
Titanium
Multiple Product Variants
Based strictly on the supplied information, the product family includes:
- 1 nominal diameter: Ø 2.4 mm
- 1 locking-head configuration
- 11 length options
- 2 material options: SS316L / Titanium
If every listed length is available in both materials, this could theoretically represent:
11 × 2 = up to 22 basic length × material configurations
The exact commercial matrix should be confirmed from the official Cat. No. and GTIN table.
