Stripping torques in human bone can be reliably predicted prior to screw insertion with optimum tightness being found between 70% and 80% of the maximum

AIMS: To devise a method to quantify and optimize tightness when inserting cortical screws, based on bone characterization and screw geometry. METHODS: Cortical human cadaveric diaphyseal tibiae screw holes (n = 20) underwent destructive testing to firstly establish the relationship between cortical...
