Reason for Recall

There is a galling effect (cold-weld) caused by friction between the array fixation pins and the TMINI array guide holes due to insufficient clearance between the outer diameter of the fixation pins and the inner diameter of the TMINI array guide holes. As a result, the array guide has the possibility of binding to the array fixation pins during drilling.
