Abstract
New Ilizarov rings composed of aluminum (Al) or carbon composite (C) are lower in weight and more radiolucent than the stainless steel (SS) rings currently in use. The new rings were subjected to a variety of mechanical tests. The aluminum rings performed as well as the stainless steel rings in all tests; in some tests the carbon rings proved to be less rigid.
