2002 article

Influence of bolt tightening torque, wire size, and component reuse on wire fixation in circular external fixation

VETERINARY SURGERY, Vol. 31, pp. 571–576.

MeSH headings : Animals; Biomechanical Phenomena; Bone Screws / veterinary; Bone Wires / veterinary; Equipment Failure; Fracture Fixation / methods; Fracture Fixation / veterinary; Orthopedic Fixation Devices / veterinary; Torque
TL;DR: The cannulated and slotted bolts from both manufacturers failed to maintain 70% of initial wire tension after 7 and 4 uses, respectively, and only the IMEX system could maintain clinically recommended wire tension safely using 1.5- or 1.6-mm wires. (via Semantic Scholar)
