The Pin to Rod Coupling is an orthopedic external-fixation component designed to connect fixation pins with supporting rods within an external fixator frame. It provides the mechanical interface required to position a bone pin relative to the connecting rod during assembly of an external fixation construct.

The current Peak Surgicals product is identified by storefront SKU PS-OP-5916 and is available in two listed configurations: PS3806 – Ø8 × 3–4 and PS3826 – Ø11 × 5–6. The product is positioned as a stainless-steel orthopedic coupling within the Peak Surgicals external fixation range.

External Fixator Pin-to-Rod Connection

The primary purpose of the coupling is to create a connection between an orthopedic fixation pin and an external support rod. Pin-to-rod couplings form part of modular external fixation systems in which pins placed in bone are connected to external rods to construct a supporting frame.

The required coupling should be selected according to the diameter of the rod and fixation pin used in the external fixator system.

PS3806 – Ø8 × 3–4 Configuration

The first listed option is PS3806 – Ø8 × 3–4. Within external-fixation sizing conventions, this configuration is intended for an 8 mm rod system with fixation pins within the listed 3–4 mm range.

Buyers should verify compatibility with the specific rod and pin system being assembled before ordering.

PS3826 – Ø11 × 5–6 Configuration

The second available option is PS3826 – Ø11 × 5–6. This configuration is intended for a larger external-fixation arrangement using an 11 mm rod and fixation pins within the listed 5–6 mm range.

The Ø11 configuration should not be substituted for the Ø8 version without confirming the dimensions of the external fixator components being used.

Orthopedic External Fixation Application

Pin-to-rod couplings are used within orthopedic external fixation systems to connect bone pins to external support rods. This type of modular arrangement allows the surgeon to construct a fixation frame according to the fracture pattern, selected external-fixator system, and required pin and rod positions.

Peak Surgicals also lists pin-to-rod couplings within its broader External Fixators product range alongside connecting rods, rod-to-rod couplings, clamps, pins, and other frame components.

Stainless Steel Construction

The current Peak Surgicals page title identifies this Pin to Rod Coupling as a stainless steel orthopedic component. The metallic construction provides the rigid mechanical structure required for connecting external fixation components.

The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the current product page. Hospitals, trauma centers, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a particular material grade or certificate should confirm that specification before ordering.

Two Coupling Sizes for Different Fixator Systems

The current listing provides two distinct diameter combinations rather than a single universal coupling:

PS3806: Ø8 × 3–4
PS3826: Ø11 × 5–6

This makes accurate selection important. Buyers should identify the rod diameter and compatible fixation-pin range before choosing the coupling.

Modular External Fixator Component

The Pin to Rod Coupling is one component within a larger modular external fixation assembly. It should be selected together with compatible rods, pins, clamps, and associated fixation hardware rather than treated as an independent fixation device.

The current page does not state compatibility with a named external-fixator brand or proprietary system. Universal compatibility should therefore not be assumed without confirming component dimensions.

For Trauma Centers and Orthopedic Procurement

The Pin to Rod Coupling is relevant for orthopedic trauma departments, external fixation sets, hospitals, surgical centers, orthopedic distributors, and procurement teams sourcing replacement or system components for modular external fixators.

For accurate purchasing, buyers should reference PS-OP-5916 together with the required component code: PS3806 for Ø8 × 3–4 or PS3826 for Ø11 × 5–6. Exact external-fixator system compatibility, locking mechanism details, overall coupling dimensions, and stainless-steel alloy grade should be confirmed before ordering when required.
