Dr. Harold Hess, CEO and Founder of Enduralock, was a neurosurgeon specializing in implanting interspinous process devices. Frustrated by lengthy surgery and recovery times, he developed an interspinous-interlaminar fusion device with a proprietary locking mechanism that endured 5 million cycles of compression and 5 million cycles of torque without loosening. This device, now FDA-approved and CE-marked, is used across the US and in Europe. Inspired by its success, Dr. Hess founded Enduralock, recognizing the critical importance of reliable fastener connections in aerospace and commercial space.
