Content
In particular, FIG. 103 illustrates that the external helical threads 782 interface with internal helical threads 717 in a clearance fit. This clearance fit has a length of thread engagement (Arrow LTE) that is shorter than a length of the external helical threads 782 (Arrow EHT). Advantageously, such an interface may provide strong reliable fixation of the one or more sutures 1034 within the anchor body 702 and still prevent severing the one or more sutures 1034 within the anchor body 702.
