The device's maximum is up to 8 cm according to the sales sheet, but it might not be your body's maximum. You'll need to consult your doctor for that.

The 9mm precise nail only goes to 50mm and most peoples bone canals aren't going to be above that. You probably wouldn't want to do much more than 5cm anyway, unless you have some pre-existing condition.

Thanks for your respond , yes I have pre- existing condition and I need 6cm , is there any percice nail can give me that ? Why it's different than the tibia , because I know in tibia you can length up to 6,5 cm

When you say 9mm precise do you mean the diameter or the length for the precise ? Thank you

I mean the diameter of the nail is 9mm. (I think it's actually 8.5mm). So yeah, the diameter of the nail determines the max distraction length I guess. The bigger nails can distract further. It would depend on the width of your bone canals as to what size nail you can use. You'll have to get x-rays for that.
