Biomechanics of Exeter hip replacement:
Modular with a choice of larger 28 and 32 mm heads
bigger head provide greater stability,but Increase volumetric wear and lead to the use of thinner layer of poly
No collar ,therefor,neck cut level & orientation are not critical
Polished – allow subsidence to stable position
Centralizer allow subsidence without excessive forces on cement
Double tapered
Stainless Steel
Designed by Ling & Lee - 1st implanted in 1970
NJR: 95% survival at 15 years
10A ODP rating
V40 trunnion makes the neck diameter smaller allowing for increased ROM

Strongly recommend going on an Exeter course organised by Stryker.
You will meet the people behind the design and the success of the best femoral stem.
