Description

Oxford Gap Gauge SML 3/4mm. The instrument is used for an intermediate check of the flexion and extension gaps when preparing the femur to accept the femoral component.

Reason

A drafting error during an unrelated design change has led to 4 misleading dimensions on the drawing. The CAD model remained the same thickness but the problem dimensions were accidentally struck from an incorrect point result in an increase of 1.0mm in the value of each dimension
