PI-19: Gliding nail fatigue test

This EndoLab® internal reference (accredited) describes fatigue testing of gliding nails. The test set-up is based on ISO 7206-4. To enable axial load bearing without bone tissue, the gliding mechanism of the nail is blocked by an axial support. Six implants are tested to determine the run-out load of the system.
