The Headless Compression Screw (Herbert Screw) Cannulated Ø 2.5mm is an orthopedic fixation screw available in multiple lengths and in both stainless steel and titanium configurations. Its headless, cannulated Herbert-pattern design provides a low-profile screw configuration for orthopedic fixation procedures where controlled screw placement and compression are required.
The current Peak Surgicals product is identified as SKU PS-OP-010065. The live product range includes 11 lengths from 10 mm to 30 mm, increasing in 2 mm increments, with separate catalog codes for stainless steel and titanium versions.
The current Peak Surgicals product title specifically identifies this screw as cannulated with a diameter of Ø 2.5 mm. Cannulation provides a central pathway through the screw and distinguishes this configuration from a solid orthopedic screw.
General orthopedic guidance from the AO Foundation notes that most headless compression screws are cannulated and can be inserted over a guide wire. AO also identifies the Herbert screw as one established type of headless compression screw. Exact guide-wire size and instrumentation compatibility for this Peak Surgicals model are not stated on the current product page and should therefore be confirmed before ordering.
The product is specifically identified as a Headless Compression Screw. Unlike conventional screws with a prominent external head, headless compression screws are designed so the screw head can be positioned within or flush to the fixation area when the selected technique requires a low-profile implant.
AO describes headless compression screws as commonly used for fixation of articular and periarticular fragments and notes that their recessed head design can help avoid hardware prominence. These are general characteristics of the implant category rather than procedure-specific claims for PS-OP-010065.
The current Peak Surgicals product table provides a broad range of screw lengths from 10 mm through 30 mm. Available lengths are 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, and 30 mm.
This allows orthopedic teams and procurement departments to identify the required length while maintaining the same listed Ø 2.5 mm Herbert-pattern configuration.
The current product table lists a dedicated stainless steel catalog code for every available length. These codes run from 560.010 for the 10 mm screw through 560.030 for the 30 mm screw.
The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the live product page. Buyers requiring a specific implant-grade material designation or supporting documentation should confirm it before purchasing.
Peak Surgicals also provides titanium versions across the complete 10–30 mm length range. Titanium codes use the corresponding PS-560.xxx format, beginning with PS-560.010 and ending with PS-560.030.
The exact titanium alloy or grade is not stated on the current page. A specific alloy designation should therefore not be assumed from the material name alone.
Headless compression screws are used within orthopedic fixation systems where internal compression and a low-profile screw configuration are required. The Herbert screw design is an established headless compression screw pattern used within orthopedic fixation.
The current Peak Surgicals page does not specify a particular fracture, bone, joint, anatomical region, or approved clinical indication for this exact Ø 2.5 mm model. Procedure-specific use should therefore be determined from the applicable surgical plan, implant documentation, and surgeon requirements rather than inferred solely from the screw diameter.
The live storefront includes separate Material and Size selectors. Buyers should confirm both variables before purchasing because stainless-steel and titanium versions have different catalog-number formats despite sharing the same listed length range.
The current page does not provide thread length, thread pitch, driver interface, guide-wire diameter, drill size, screw core diameter, or insertion instrumentation requirements. These specifications should be confirmed when compatibility with an existing Herbert screw instrument system is required.
