Acu-Loc 2 Wrist Plating System
Product Overview
The Acumed Acu-Loc 2 Plating System is a next-generation solution in plating fixation that focuses on complete implant options and a streamlined surgical process.
This comprehensive system includes several plate families to give surgeons the freedom to choose between distal or proximal sitting plates, three different plate extension options and fragment specific plating options.
The system also includes instrumentation for plate placement and fracture management.
Flexible Configurations
Acumed offers over 24 validated Acu-Loc 2 Wrist Plating configurations to best support diverse market needs.
The most comprehensive, full configuration is available along with our most streamlined essential configuration in our small-footprint Acu-Loc 2 CORE tray.
Additional options are available. Contact us to find out which configuration may be right for you.
Features
Comprehensive Plating System
Standard, Variable Angle Locking, Fragment Specific and Extension Plates address a variety of fracture patterns.
Fracture Support
The distal screw row is designed for subchondral support, while the two styloid screws target the radial column. The ulnar corner of the plate offers suture holes for addressing small volar fragments.
Frag Loc® Technology
A patented, two-part cannulated compression screw is designed to compress dorsal fragments.
Instrumentation
Innovative instrumentation includes a targeting guide with radiopaque markings that allow visualization of anticipated screw trajectories. Kickstand posts are offered for distal first reduction and corrective osteotomy procedures.
Modular Extension Plate Attachments
Offer surgeons the option to extend any of the long and wide Volar Distal Radius Proximal Plates up to 176 mm.
Product Training Series: Acu-Loc 2 Wrist Plating System Key Features
The Acumed Acu-Loc 2 Plating System is a next-generation solution in plating fixation that focuses on complete implant options and a streamlined surgical process.

Acu-Loc 2 Volar Distal Radius Plate Surgical Technique Overview Animation
The standard Acu-Loc 2 Volar Distal Radius Plate is designed to closely replicate the anatomical contours of the distal radius and may assist in restoring the original geometry. In this animation, the surgical steps for installation of a standard volar distal radius plate are overviewed incorporating the 2.7 mm Low-Profile Hexalobe Screw.
Acu-Loc 2 Wrist Plating System with 2.7 mm Low-Profile Hexalobe Screws Overview
The Acumed Acu-Loc 2 Plating System is a next-generation solution in plating fixation that focuses on complete implant options and a streamlined surgical process. The addition of 2.7 mm Low-Profile screws provides more options for proximal shaft screws to accommodate varying patient anatomy.
Acu-Loc 2 Volar Distal Ulna Plate Surgical Technique Overview Animation
The Volar Distal Ulna Plate was designed for fractures involving the ulnar head, ulnar neck, and fractures of the distal ulna. Usually, these injuries are associated with fractures of the distal radius. In this animation, the surgical steps for installation of a volar distal ulna plate are overviewed incorporating the 2.7 mm Low-Profile Hexalobe Screw.
