REF S313152 Straight Acetabular Inserter Handle Ringloc non-sterile Orthopedic manual surgical instrument

Reason for recall

The Straight Ringloc Button Latch Inserter Handle may have been manufactured at the higher end of the tolerance causing interference with the Ringloc cup. The inserter handle may lock onto the cup during impaction. If alternative inserters are not available this could cause a surgical delay greater than 30 minutes.
