Round Body Needles
This point profile is engineered to provide easy penetration of intended tissues. Forceps flats are formed in between the point and the attachment. Positioning the needle holder in this area confers extra stability on the needle being held, aiding precise placement of the sutures.
Conventional Cutting Needles
This needle has a triangular cross section with the apex of the triangle inside of a needle curvature. The effective cutting edges are restricted to the front section of a needle and merge into a triangulated body which continues through half the length of a needle.
Reverse Cutting Needles
The body of this needle is triangular in cross section and have the apex cutting edge on the outside of the needle curvature.
Taper Cut Needles
This needle combines the initial penetration of a cutting needle with the minimised trauma of a round bodied needle. The cutting tip is limited to the point of the needle, which then tapers out to merge smoothly into a round cross section.
Blunt End Needles
These needles have been designed to minimise the risk of needle stick injury. The needle point is sharp enough to penetrate fascia and muscle but not skin. Virtually eliminating accidental glove puncture, the needle can also be used for suturing friable tissue such as the liver.
Taper Point Blunt End Needle
These needles have been designed to minimise the risk of needle stick injury. The needle point is sharp enough to penetrate fascia and muscle but not skin. Virtually eliminating accidental glove puncture, the needle can also be used for suturing friable tissue such as the liver.
Trocar Point Needles
Based on the traditional TROCAR POINT, this needle has a strong cutting head which then merges into a robust round body. The design of the cutting head ensures powerful penetration, even when deep in dense tissue.
Dexon Point Needles
These are round body needles with added strength and sharpness. This enables the needle to stay sharp even after multiple penetration. The needle point is provided with a step to ensure strength and sharpness which enables ease of penetration for multiple pass.
Straight Needles
Suture needles without curve can be provided with various point profiles.
Test Needles
These are round body needles with added strength and sharpness. This enables the needle to stay sharp even after multiple penetration. The needle point is provided with a step to ensure strength and sharpness which enables ease of penetration for multiple pass.
