Conmed 4.2mm HPS Gator, Sterling HPS-C002
The HPS-C002 Sterling Gator blade is a 4.20 mm diameter, 19.0 cm working-length arthroscopic resection blade from the Signature Series designed for hip preservation surgery. It features the “Gator” geometry and a Sterling (XtraSharp ) cutting finish. This single-use instrument is optimized for deep-joint access and precision tissue removal in hip arthroscopy.
This 4.2 mm Sterling Gator blade (catalogue # HPS-C002) from CONMED is engineered for high-performance soft tissue and cartilage resection in hip arthroscopy, especially within the constrained anatomy of the femoral neck and acetabular rim. The Sterling finish utilises the ECG (electro-chemical grinding) XtraSharp manufacturing technique for a sharper edge and cleaner cuts, reducing tear and tissue drag. With its 19.0 cm working length and 4.2 mm diameter, it offers a balance of reach and manoeuvrability, and the Gator profile enhances access to recesses difficult to reach with standard straight blades. It integrates seamlessly with the CONMED HPS Hip Preservation System instrumentation and resection consoles, helping surgeons maintain efficient workflows in hip-preservation procedures.
