Kangli Orthopaedics supplies this titanium-alloy Kirschner wire (K-wire) as a slender, single-piece pin for orthopedic trauma procedures. It features a tapered pointed tip, a smooth round shaft with a consistent profile, and a blunt cut end. The wire can be selected for temporary positioning, pin fixation, fracture-fragment alignment, and plate positioning within trauma fixation workflows.
Defined Pointed Tip for Wire Entry
The tapered tip narrows continuously toward a sharp leading end. This creates a clearly identifiable entry side, while the shaft extends behind it as one uninterrupted pin.

Uniform Round Shaft for Consistent Handling
The K-wire has a slender, circular shaft that remains substantially uniform along its working length. Its profile has no threads, collars, or stepped sections, making it suitable for applications requiring a consistent metal pin surface along the fixation path.
Blunt Cut End for Clear Orientation
The opposite end is cylindrical and finishes with a short, blunt cut surface rather than a point. The contrast between the pointed leading end and flat trailing end helps identify wire orientation during handling and placement.
Single-Piece Titanium-Alloy Construction
The titanium alloy extends from the pointed tip through the round shaft to the cut end. This continuous construction presents the working element as one clearly identifiable wire rather than a shaft assembled from separate components.
Applications in Trauma Fixation
- Temporary K-wire positioning during trauma fixation
- Fracture-fragment alignment with a metal skeletal pin
- Plate positioning with a Kirschner wire
- General trauma pin fixation
The wire can be incorporated into a fixation workflow that also includes the Titanium Cable Fixation System when a wire-based pin is selected instead of cable-based support.
