Metal/Metal CoCr

The DJO Surgical Metal/Metal CoCr acetabular liners and femoral heads utilize new production technology, which includes removal of large block carbides, resulting in a smooth, groove-free surface.

Superior Surface Quality
A unique process is used to remove large block carbides within the material. The presence of large block carbides can elevate wear-in periods for metal-on-metal bearings².

Homogenous Structure
The removal of block carbides gives the DJO Surgical metal/metal components a homogenous, fine-grained structure.

Carbide vs Fine Grain
Removal of block carbides results in favorable wear properties by improving corrosion resistance.

Comparison
In a wear-rate test of metal on metal vs. alumina on polyethylene, the wear of the metal-on-metal articulation was significantly decreased; this reduction was even more substantial when compared to the wear rate of the current standard of metal on polyethylene^1.
