FASTak^® Anchor

Threaded anchors provide greater opportunity for bone contact than barbed anchors and also provide a path for removal. Providing excellent strength in a smaller size, this non-absorbable, braided polyblend suture is preloaded for convenience. A short inserter and self-drilling design create a reliable and quick procedure with no additional instrumentation needed.The Small Bone FASTak suture anchor is a fully threaded, 2.4 mm x 7.5 mm titanium suture anchor that is preloaded with 2-0 FiberWire. It comes on a handled inserter with two 17.9 mm 3/8 circle swedged-on tapered needles. It alleviates the need for pre-drilling, while creating an excellent point of fixation.
