The 4.5 mm diameter bi-cortical post has an extremely low-profile head to reduce soft tissue irritation. A 2.5 mm drill for bi-cortical post is used to broach the cortical bone, while the depth gauge is used to obtain accurate sizing information. Although the post has a self-tapping feature, a tap is included for those who prefer the "drill-measure-tap" insertion technique. The post and washers are manufactured using titanium ASTM F-136 alloy.
