Introducing the Unique E1™ Avantage™ Anatomic Double Mobility Insert


Avantage is the ONLY double mobility bearing hip that combines an anatomical acetabular cup design with the E1 Antioxidant Infused Technology.

The Avantage primary and revision acetabular system combines the benefit of a large-diameter bearing with an ultra-low wear vitamin stabilised highly crossed linked polyethylene.

E1 Antioxidant Infused Technology provides outstanding oxidation resistance. In addition, in-vitro test results comparing 52mm Avantage E1 inserts to ArCom inserts unveiled nearly 95% reduction in average volumetric wear per million cycle.

The enhanced high performance Avantage E1 insert will supplement the existing Avantage acetabular platform by offering:
- potentially increased implant longevity
- a reduced risk of implant revision due to wear debris
