• 3rd femoral condyle in permanent contact with the peg of the tibial insert in polyethylene.
• Femoral keel available.
Tibial baseplate :
• Posterior notch respecting the insertion of the PCL.
• Stabilized by 2 anti-rotation wings.
• Extension Keel available.
Tibial insert :
• Postero-stabilised insert.
