IBO manufactures the LOCK-ATTACH bars as part of the LOCK-ATTACH overdenture attachment system. Used when the prosthodontic plan calls for a bar-retained overdenture supported by multiple LOCK-ATTACH abutments, combining the bar's splinting effect with the LOCK-ATTACH retention principle.
This reference, HE-41909, integrates into the LOCK-ATTACH workflow alongside the LOCK-ATTACH Abutments, Titanium Female Housing (HE-41918), retention inserts, and analog.
The LOCK-ATTACH bars is selected at the appropriate step in the overdenture rehabilitation workflow — from initial impression through laboratory fabrication and chairside delivery. Refer to IBO LOCK-ATTACH workflow documentation for step-by-step protocol.
This component integrates into the IBO LOCK-ATTACH overdenture attachment system, compatible across all LOCK-ATTACH platforms (Internal Hex, Conical Reactive, Multiunit).

IBO LOCK-ATTACH Titanium components are machined from medical-grade Ti-6Al-4V ELI Titanium, Grade 5, in compliance with ASTM F136 and ISO 5832-3. Retention inserts are manufactured from medical-grade silicone formulations validated for intra-oral use.
Titanium components are finished with a polished/machined surface at the gingival emergence for soft-tissue compatibility, and tightly toleranced connection geometry at the implant interface to ensure prosthetic passivity and seal integrity.
All materials and processes are subject to full traceability from raw material to final validation.
IBO LOCK-ATTACH components are supplied in the manufacturer's validated condition for clinical use. Follow the package insert and IBO Instructions for Use for handling, storage and torque protocol. Do not modify the component geometry or surface in any way; doing so compromises the prosthetic interface and the regulatory clearance.
Single-use device. Single patient, single procedure. Discard unused components per local biohazard regulations.
