The TORQ™ is a surgical instrument that improves the stability of the sternum using standard steel wires.

The TORQ™ is designed to:

  • Improve healing
  • Decrease sternal pain
  • Reduce dehiscence
  • Significantly reduce wire breakages


The TORQ™ is simple to use and can be used with current sternal closure procedures
and most common wiring techniques.

The TORQ™ provides an increased and more uniform tension to the sternal wires,
resulting in better sternal approximation and stability.

The TORQ™ tightly twists the wire, providing a secure closure while significantly reducing
wire breakages.
