Product Description

Introducing our cutting-edge ceramic screw toolset, designed specifically for neuroscience applications involving non-human primates. This comprehensive toolset ensures precision, safety, and compatibility with our unique ceramic screws, making it an indispensable asset for your research.

There are two different toolsets available for SA and SI type ceramic screws.

Each toolset consists of 1 x instrument tray, 1 x drill, 1 x distance tube set, 1 x tap, and 1 x screw driver. 

It is strongly recommended to use TREC tools for TREC ceramic screws. Other tools may damage the screws or lead to unsatisfactory implantation results.

Key Features

• Precision Drilling: Our high-quality drill has an ergonomic design for precise and controlled manual drilling.

• Accurate Tapping: The tap ensures that threads are perfectly cut to match our ceramic screws, providing a secure fit every time.

• Efficient Screwing: The ergonomic screw driver is designed to fit the heads of our ceramic screws, making the installation process quick and easy.

• Safety First: The distance tube set prevents the drill from penetrating too deeply into the skull, ensuring that only the bone is drilled and brain tissue is protected.

• Sterilization and Storage: All tools are conveniently stored and sterilized in a dedicated sterilization tray, ensuring they are always ready for use and free from contamination.
