Functional description

CoCrMo alloy with TiN & porous coating. Has an open box and femoral spindle, which interact with the peg of the PE-insert and contribute to the stabilization of the knee joint. Allows for flexibility with the selection of the femoral size due to a size independent box width and height. Stem extensions can be used by a conical connection via an offset adapter. The femoral cone has an integrated valgus of 6°, which facilitates the implantation of components with stem extensions.
