  • Causa
    Lot specific recall due to reports of alignment peg fractures occurring in approximately 0.4% of surgeries. the recalled lots were manufactured from 455 stainless steel which is the material that all of the reported fractured instruments were manufactured from. due to the notch sensitivity of the 455 stainless steel the peg on the impactor manufactured with this material has a propensity for fracture. the remainder of lots that are not affected by this recall were made with 13-8 stainless steel.
