Asymmetric Porous Coating

The TAC porous technology strikes a balance between material strength, pore size and porosity. The TAC proprietary process creates a unique 3D structural lattice of irregular shaped particles with increased average pore size and greater porosity than traditional spherical beads.1

Optimized Head/Cup Aspect Ratio

This allows one to achieve the maximum head/cup combination while still maintaining polyethene thickness.4

Vitamin E Liners

Alteon® XLE highly crosslinked vitamin E acetabular liners are designed to provide low wear while maintaining mechanical strength, reducing the free radicals, and oxidative degradation.2,3 Liners are available in Neutral, Extended Coverage, +5 Lateralized, and Face Changing configurations.

Streamlined Instrumentation

Instruments designed to complement the overall surgical workflow.

Three-Part Locking Mechanism

The Alteon Cup features a three-part locking mechanism with more than 15 years of clinical use.5 It consists of an apical tab intended to prevent liner translation and pull-out, recessed scallops intended to provide rotational control, and a fully congruent liner/shell designed to virtually eliminate micromotion.6,7
