Overview
AI-generated summary, 6 Oct 2026
The device consists of a 36 mm cobalt‑chromium‑molybdenum (CoCrMo) femoral head paired with a compatible 36 mm acetabular insert made of cross‑linked ultra‑high‑molecular‑weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). It is intended for use as a component set in total hip arthroplasty, providing articulation between the femoral and acetabular sides of the joint.
The system is supplied by Hayes Medical, Inc. and was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway (decision date 31 Jan 2007, K‑number K070061, product code LWJ). The 36 mm size adds a new head dimension and includes compatible acetabular inserts with 10° and 20° hooded configurations. The components are provided as sterile, implantable devices for surgical implantation.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 6 Oct 2026
What sizes and hood angles are available for this hip component set?
The set is supplied only in a 36 mm diameter for both the femoral head and the acetabular insert. The insert is offered with two hooded configurations, providing 10° or 20° coverage to accommodate different surgical approaches and patient anatomy.
Is the device provided sterile and ready for implantation?
Yes, Hayes Medical ships the femoral head and acetabular insert as sterile, implantable devices. Sterility is maintained through the packaging, allowing the surgeon to use the components directly in the operating room without additional processing.
Can the components be reused or are they single‑use only?
Both the CoCr femoral head and the UHMWPE acetabular insert are intended for single‑use implantation. Re‑sterilization is not recommended because it could compromise material integrity and the precise articulation surface required for a total hip arthroplasty.
What regulatory pathway was used for clearance of this product?
The device was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway, with decision date 31 January 2007 (K‑number K070061, product code LWJ). This indicates it was found substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device.
