Summary:A link for interconnecting with one or more additional, similarly configured links so as to form a linkage for affixation to bone includes a receptacle member having an interior surface that defines a receptacle and further defines a bearing surface and an array of retention features that is arranged around the bearing surface. The link includes an insertion member that extends from the receptacle member and defines an exterior surface that at least partially surrounds a hole. A geometry of the exterior surface is configured to fit within a geometry of the receptacle. The exterior surface defines an annular recess configured to receive a retention member for engaging one or more of the arrayed retention features.
