Covidien STAINLESS STEEL ELECTRODES E1550
The Stainless Steel Electrode E1550 is a sterile, single-use ball-tip electrode used in electrosurgery. It has a 5 mm (3/16 in) spherical tip for broad contact. The shaft is made of high-quality stainless steel and has a standard 0.24 cm (3/32 in) diameter.
The E1550 ball electrode from Valleylab (Medtronic) is designed to deliver fulguration or desiccation in surgical procedures, offering rounded contact for controlled energy delivery. Made from durable stainless steel, the electrode is built for high reliability and safe single-use deployment. Its compact 5 mm tip allows surgeons to apply energy precisely, minimizing unintended tissue damage. The standard 3 / 32-inch shaft makes it compatible with most electrosurgical pencils, ensuring ease of integration into existing OR workflows.
