Abstract
A modular torque-applying surgical tool includes a driver member having a proximal handle and a distal end, and a torque-applying insert removably and replaceably attachable to the distal end of the driver member. The torque-applying insert is designed to be deformable when a predetermined level of torque is achieved, or when the insert is subjected to a torque in excess of a predetermined magnitude such that the insert is effective to apply to a driven member a predetermined minimum torque.
