In2Bones Global Inc. released its Hercules Suture Anchor System and AlloAid Wedges for lower extremity surgeries.
With the Hercules Suture Anchor System, there is opportunity for sales acceleration with soft tissue fixation for the multi-billion sports medicine market. The system gives surgeons two PEEK-based implant families, Fully-Threaded and Knotless.
Both anchor families feature proprietary, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) sutures that encourage strong and durable repair.
Highlights of the Hercules Suture Anchor System include:
The wedges are sterile, pre-shaped, and sized for the Cotton and Evans Osteotomies, both performed during flatfoot reconstructive surgeries. A pre-sterilized instrument set is provided to allow precision implant sizing and placement.
The Hercules Suture Anchor and AlloAid Wedge Systems provide pull-through sales opportunities in previously unaddressed areas of the In2Bones portfolio of products. They are delivered pre-sterilized and OR-ready, providing logistical, quality, and cost benefits to the healthcare provider.
There are tremendous benefits to providers who select implants that include sterile, single-use instruments:

Both anchor families feature proprietary, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) sutures that encourage strong and durable repair.
Highlights of the Hercules Suture Anchor System include:
- Radiolucent PEEK material with modulus similar to cortical bone
- Specific sizing for versatile applications, with excellent pullout strength1
- Unique, Knotless Suture Anchor enabling tensioning after implantation
- Proprietary BightForce Suture featuring a smooth, silk-like suture surface that is gentle on soft tissues and surgeon gloves, and remains flexible and pliable throughout the repair procedure
- Anchors delivered sterile and assembled for increased OR efficiency
