The FiberTape cerclage system is a strong, simple, and effective solution for replacing metal cables and wires traditionally used for fracture fixation. The low-profile, broad footprint of the FiberTape cerclage suture provides superior compression and ultimate load compared to traditional metal cables and wires.¹ The system includes FiberTape and TigerTape™ cerclage sutures, various passing instruments, a tensioner, a handle and an instrument tray.
