Multiple Fixation Options
Initial and long-term component fixation are key to restore joint function. With the PINNACLE® Cup, fixation is achieved through 180° of either POROCOAT™, or GRIPTION™ Coatings.
The proven cementless coating fixation technologies2, 3, 4 are based on the outstanding clinical performance5, 6, 7 of POROCOAT Porous Coating, which was introduced with the AML™ Cup in 1977, with the DURALOC® Cup in 1980 and with the PINNACLE Cup in 2000. Therefore, it has been clinically tracked for over 30 years.
Finally, in 2009 the GRIPTION Cup fixation technology emulated the reliable foundation of the POROCOAT Porous Coating being also an evolutionary development in implant fixation technology due to an advanced 3D structure6-11.
