Ethicon Linear Cutters – NTLC55
The Ethicon Linear Cutter NTLC55 is a 55 mm single-use surgical stapler used during open procedures. It combines cutting and stapling into one action, helping surgeons transect and seal tissue efficiently. The device features selectable staple heights to accommodate different tissue thicknesses.
This stapler uses six rows of advanced 3D staples, providing strong compression and enhanced hemostasis. It allows surgeons to choose closed staple heights (1.5 mm, 1.8 mm, or 2.0 mm) based on tissue type. A safety lock-out mechanism helps prevent accidental firing and ensures the device is properly prepared before use. Its ergonomic design supports up to twelve firings, improving workflow during complex surgeries.
