Lisfranc
The 1.5mm profile of the lisfranc plates provides strength and stability as it addresses patients with shallow tissue envelopes. These plates are precontoured with a built-in ridge angle to accommodate metatarsal declination.
This anatomic bend reduces the risk of accidental ray elevation during fixation, which can lead to transfer lesions of the adjacent metatarsals. All plates allow for the option of locking and non-locking Ø3.0mm or Ø3.5mm screws and include an oblong hole for additional metatarsal compression and fixation.

Standard compression hole:
- Accomodates with 3.0 non-locking screws
- Delivers 1.5 mm of additional compression
- Corresponds to areas with high bone density
Threaded holes:
For locking or non-locking 3.0 or 3.5 mm screws

Monoaxial & Polyaxial System
The Airlock® Ø3.0mm and Ø3.5mm locking and non-locking screws may be used in all Airlock plate fixation holes. However the standard compression hole only accomodate Ø3.0mm non-locking screws, and the Presslock® compression hole only accomodate Ø3.5mm locking screws.
- Monoaxial locking screws
- Polyaxial non-locking screws
- Tapered head
- Self-tapping design
- Self-retaining driver / screw interface
Compression Screws
Additional compression can be achieved with a combined Nexis Ø4.0mm headless compression screw, beveled PECA Compressive Ø4.0mm screw, or Nexis Ø5.0mm headless compression screw.
All instrumentation is conveniently organized and color coded.
