The Calcaneal Safety Lock Plate 3.5mm is an orthopedic fixation plate designed for surgical stabilization of fractures involving the calcaneus, or heel bone. Its anatomical plate configuration supports fixation across the complex lateral surface of the calcaneus while providing multiple screw positions for controlled stabilization of fracture fragments.
Developed for orthopedic and trauma procedures, this calcaneus locking plate is intended for use in cases where stable internal fixation is required following fracture reduction. The 3.5mm Safety Lock platform is designed for use with compatible locking screws, creating a fixed-angle construct that can help maintain plate-to-bone alignment after fixation.
Calcaneal fractures can involve multiple fragments and may extend into the subtalar joint. Surgical fixation therefore requires a plate geometry capable of supporting different regions of the calcaneus while allowing the surgeon to position screws according to the fracture pattern and available bone stock.
The Calcaneal Safety Lock Plate 3.5mm provides multiple fixation points distributed throughout the plate. This configuration is suitable for orthopedic procedures involving intra-articular, extra-articular, comminuted and other surgically managed calcaneal fracture patterns where plate-and-screw fixation has been selected by the operating surgeon.
The plate belongs to the 3.5mm orthopedic locking fixation system. Compatible Safety Lock screws engage the threaded locking holes of the plate to create a fixed-angle connection between the screw and plate. Unlike conventional non-locking fixation, the stability of a locking construct does not rely solely on compression between the plate and bone surface.
This design makes locking plate systems useful in orthopedic trauma procedures where maintaining the planned relationship between individual screws and the plate is important. Screw selection, trajectory, length and final construct configuration remain dependent on fracture anatomy, bone quality and the surgeon's operative plan.
The broad plate profile is designed around the anatomy of the calcaneus. Multiple openings positioned across the plate allow fixation to be distributed through different regions of the heel bone rather than concentrated along a single straight axis. This is particularly relevant in complex calcaneal fractures where several fragments may require stabilization after anatomical reduction.
The plate is intended to provide a stable framework while allowing the orthopedic surgeon to select appropriate screw positions according to the individual fracture configuration. Correct plate orientation and screw placement should be confirmed intraoperatively using standard orthopedic surgical and imaging techniques.
The Calcaneal Safety Lock Plate 3.5mm may be selected by qualified orthopedic surgeons for operative fixation of appropriate calcaneus fractures, including intra-articular and extra-articular fractures, multi-fragmentary fractures, selected tongue-type patterns and fractures involving displacement of the articular surface. Implant selection must always be based on patient anatomy, fracture morphology and the surgeon's clinical assessment.

It is used as part of an internal fixation system for surgically treated fractures of the calcaneus. The plate provides multiple fixation points for stabilizing heel bone fracture fragments after reduction.
The 3.5mm designation identifies the Safety Lock fixation system with which the plate is designed to be used, including compatible 3.5mm locking screws.
Calcaneal locking plates may be used for appropriate intra-articular fracture patterns when operative fixation is selected. Final implant choice depends on fracture morphology and the orthopedic surgeon's treatment plan.
Compatible locking screws engage the threaded plate holes to create a fixed-angle screw-to-plate connection. This produces a stable plate-and-screw construct after fracture reduction.
The Peak Surgicals product page includes material and size selectors. The required configuration should be selected according to the surgical requirement before ordering.
The product is intended for professional orthopedic use and procurement by qualified surgeons, hospitals, surgical centers, medical institutions and authorized orthopedic instrument or implant distributors.
