Kirschner skeletal wires or Skeletal pins and wires are sterilised, sharpened, smooth stainless-steel pins introduced in 1909, the wire is now widely used in orthopaedics and other types of medical and veterinary surgery.
BS 3531-6.3 guideline assists you with dimensions, ends, marking, and packaging for manufacturing efficient Kirschner skeletal wires that are durable and of high quality. BS 3531-6.3 also provides figures on points and blunt ends.
With obedience and compliance to BS 3531-6.3, you can enhance the efficacy and standardise the quality and performance of Kirschner skeletal wires. In addition, ensure the health and safety of patients.
