First implanted in 1984, the core design proven in the P.F.C.® Sigma® Knee has successfully evolved once again. With the launch of these high performance bearings, DePuy delivers a two-piece tibial construct that approaches the performance of a one-piece design.
Highly polished cobalt chrome tray creates a smooth surface.
Tighter fit between insert and tray reduces potential micromotion.
Moderately cross-linked, oxidatively stable polyethylene reduces wear.
As part of the i2 locking mechanism, the P.F.C.®Sigma® highly polished cobalt chrome tray is designed to help reduce polyethylene wear.
- Polyethylene-friendly, highly polished cobalt chrome minimizes abrasion.
- Cobalt chrome construct: fatigue strength comparable to forged titanium.
- Highly polished cobalt chrome tray creates a smooth surface
- Consistent
- Tray Thickness
- Stem and Keel design
- Underside surface finish consistent with fixation clinical history
