Y-Knotless Flex

Competitive knotless anchors can require excessive shuttling force, increasing frustration, and potentially compromising consistency. Y-Knotless™ Flex is designed with an innovative locking mechanism and tapered repair suture to reduce shuttling force and support predictable tensioning.

Mechanically tested at 46% less shuttling force vs the leading competitor¹.

A 1.8 mm pilot hole helps minimize bone removal while 360° FormFit™ radial expansion creates spherical subcortical fixation with characteristics similar to traditional solid body anchors—while maintaining an all-suture footprint.

Higher pullout strength and lower cyclic displacement vs the leading competitor are documented in internal mechanical testing^*.

Y-Knotless™ Flex uses a dual-color shuttling suture (blue loop / black pull) to provide unmistakable visual cues for which limb is which, plus high-contrast repair configurations (green/black or white/black) to enhance visualization – especially in multi-anchor repairs.

The striped-to-solid foldover indicator helps enable consistent foldover, even in a wet environment.

Built on the proven Y-Knot^® platform, Y-Knotless™ Flex includes a reinforced forked tip inserter designed to reduce risk of in-bone breakage during anchor placement.
