Synthes 312.65 Orthopedic 6.5mm Drill Guide 5"
• Model: 312.65
• 6.5mm
• Overall Length: 5 inches
The Synthes 312.65 Drill Guide 6.5 mm is a surgical instrument used in orthopedic surgery as part of the fixation or plating systems where a 6.5 mm drill bit is required. The primary role of a drill guide is to ensure that drilling is done in the correct trajectory, angle, and position, especially when working through soft tissue, along plate holes, or through drill sleeves. Using a guide minimizes deviation (drill drift), helps maintain alignment with implants (e.g. bone screws or locking screws), and protects surrounding tissue from unintended damage.
At about 5 inches in length, the guide is long enough to span from the point of entry (often near skin or soft tissue) to the bone or implant interface, providing a stable channel for the drill bit while the surgeon holds the guide or uses a holding sleeve. The size (6.5 mm) suggests it is for larger screws or fixation elements—6.5 mm is common in larger fragment fixation, in plates or screws used in load‑bearing bones (e.g. femur, tibia, large pelvis) or in constructs where significant strength is required. The guide likely has an internal bore precisely matching the 6.5 mm drill bit diameter (or very slightly larger) to let the bit pass through without wobble while maintaining fit.
This item is used and in excellent condition.
