Product Explanation
The Locking Head Bone Screw, Self Tapping Ø 5.0 mm is an orthopedic fixation 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 → 5.0 mm Locking Head Screw → Locked Plate–Screw Construct
The product combines three principal supplied characteristics:
Locking Head
Self Tapping
Ø 5.0 mm nominal diameter
The locking-head designation indicates compatibility with a manufacturer-defined locking interface within a compatible plate hole.
The exact locking mechanism, locking-head thread geometry, fixed-angle characteristics, or possible variable-angle capability are not defined in the supplied image and should not be assumed without official technical documentation.
Product Components and Design
- Locking Head
The product is specifically identified as a:
Locking Head Bone Screw
The proximal screw head is designed to interface with a compatible locking fixation system.
The supplied product data does not define:
- Locking-head thread pitch.
- Locking-head diameter.
- Locking interface geometry.
- Locking angle.
- Variable-angle capability.
- Compatible plate-hole geometry.
These parameters should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s engineering drawings.
- Ø 5.0 mm Screw Body
The product title specifies:
Ø 5.0 mm
as the nominal screw diameter.
The supplied data does not separately specify:
- Major thread diameter.
- Minor / core diameter.
- Thread depth.
- Bone-thread pitch.
- Thread profile.
- Dimensional tolerances.
These specifications should be obtained from the manufacturer’s official dimensional drawing.
- Self-Tapping Design
The screw is specifically identified as:
Self Tapping
indicating a manufacturer-defined self-tapping tip / thread-entry configuration.
The exact:
- Cutting flute geometry.
- Tip design.
- Thread-start geometry.
- Drilling requirements.
- Need for pre-tapping in specific conditions.
are not defined in the supplied image.
These details should be confirmed from the approved surgical technique.
- Threaded Shaft
The supplied product image visually shows an externally threaded shaft extending along a substantial portion of the screw body.
The exact:
- Thread pitch.
- Thread depth.
- Thread lead.
- Threaded length.
- Core diameter.
- Thread flank profile.
are not supplied.
- Screw Tip
The distal end incorporates a defined tip associated with the product’s:
Self Tapping
designation.
The exact cutting geometry and tip dimensions should not be inferred solely from the image.
- Drive Interface
The supplied image shows an insertion interface within the proximal screw head.
However, the exact drive type is not specified.
Therefore, the technical sheet should not identify the interface as:
Hex / Torx / Star / Stardrive / other
without manufacturer confirmation.
Length Configurations
According to the supplied product information, there are two length ranges.
Range 1 — 10–48 mm in 2 mm increments
This provides 20 length options:
10 / 12 / 14 / 16 / 18 / 20 / 22 / 24 / 26 / 28 / 30 / 32 / 34 / 36 / 38 / 40 / 42 / 44 / 46 / 48 mm

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 5.0 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.
Potential applications may involve fixation through compatible locking plate holes where a 5.0 mm locking head screw is specified by the manufacturer.
The exact approved anatomical applications and compatible plate systems are not stated in the supplied image.
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 drilling instrumentation.
- 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 product is specifically identified as a:
Locking Head Bone Screw
indicating compatibility with a manufacturer-defined locking plate interface.
The exact locking-head geometry should be confirmed from official system documentation.
Self-Tapping Design
The product is specifically identified as:
Self Tapping
providing a manufacturer-defined self-tapping tip / thread-entry configuration.
Ø 5.0 mm Nominal Diameter
The product provides a nominal:
5.0 mm screw diameter
within the compatible orthopedic fixation system.
Fine 2 mm Length Increments
From:
10 mm to 48 mm
the screw is supplied in:
2 mm increments
providing closely spaced length selections.
Extended 5 mm Length Increments
From:
50 mm to 95 mm
the screw is supplied in:
5 mm increments.
30 Length Configurations
The complete supplied range includes:
30 individual screw lengths
across the two specified ranges.
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 product data, the family includes:
- 1 nominal diameter: Ø 5.0 mm
- 1 locking-head configuration
- 1 self-tapping configuration
- 30 length options
