MedTorque Inc., a supplier to orthopedic and spine OEMs for standard and custom instrumentation, has announced the introduction of its line of Single-Procedure Torque-Limiting Drivers. MedTorque’s single-procedure torque-limiting drivers are the only drivers on the market to offer Torque-Shield as well as a ratcheting drive mechanism as standard features.
MedTorque’s Torque-Shield cycle count system eliminates the possibility of using the driver beyond its calibration lifecycle. “The deactivation of the drive mechanism after reaching final actuation is an innovation that is unparalleled in the industry,” stated Chad Ryshkus, director of marketing and business development for MedTorque. “With these features offered as standard options on our product, it is clear that we’ve raised the bar for single-procedure torque-limiters available to the market.”
“We have been listening to our customers over the years and have become very sensitive to their concerns surrounding calibration of torque-limiting drivers,” articulated Steve Sundberg, MedTorque’s CEO. “Our focus when developing our products—whether they’re single-procedure or reusable—has been to eliminate these concerns by providing solutions that perform in a predictable manner. The Torque-Shield feature on our single-procedure torque-limiting products, and the Torque-Certainty program for our reusable drivers are the solutions our customers have been wanting. We are the only source for both reusable and single-procedure torque-limiting drivers and are committed in continuing our investment in the products and technology required to maintain our leadership position.”
The single-procedure torque-limiting product covers torque values from 5 in.-lbs. through 120 in.-lbs. and come in a variety of handle styles such as Palm, Axial, Tee, and Offset Tee. AO and ¼ inch square drive couplings are standard connections options.
