It is typically made of high-grade stainless steel and is designed with a double hooked, blade-like jaw at the distal end (this hooks over the upper edge of the bone) whilst an adjustable single hook is tightened against the lower edge of the bone through a screw mechanism. A traction bar may be employed to bridge the two bone clamps and using its screw mechanism, the fracture is drawn together.
