Orthopaedic bone washers are sterile, flat components used in surgical fixation to secure screws or bolts in place within bone. They distribute pressure evenly across the fixation site, helping to stabilize fractures or implants like intramedullary nails or plates.
These devices are typically single-use and regulated as medical devices, often classified based on their risk level and intended use. They are supplied sterile and may vary in material—metal, polymer, or reinforced polymer—to suit different clinical applications.
