Universal Forearm Long Plate System (UFS)
Plates
Upper Extremity
The ITS. Universal Forearm Locking Plates System is designed for the effective treatment of a wide range of forearm shaft fractures.
A special feature of this system is the freely selectable hole configuration, which makes it possible to choose locking or non-locking screws for each hole (except compression and oblong holes). With an angle selection of +/- 15°, the system offers particular versatility, especially for complex fractures.

Plate Technology. ONE Technology for all Implants.
All ITS. plates are made from Titanium Grade 2, whereas the screws are made of a harder titanium alloy. This allows the plates to have only non-threaded holes, which all (with the exception of oblong holes) accept both non-locking and locking screws.
