The System 8 family was developed by working closely with orthopaedic surgeons and the hospital staff to deliver solutions to the complex challenges of today’s healthcare environment. Improved ergonomics give surgeons a better, neutral wrist position, and textured areas help provide a firmer grip. A quick and efficient keyless drill chuck prevents loosening through a secondary locking mechanism. Advanced material and coating on pin collets prevent sticking and slipping, both of which are common concerns. The handpieces are built to be actively washed – able to be temporarily submerged when you need to do so during cleaning, prior to sterilization.
