Weck Hem-o-lock Polymer Clip – 544230
Weck Hem‑o‑lok Polymer Clip 544230 is a sterile, non‑absorbable polymer clip designed for vessel and tissue ligation during open or laparoscopic surgery. Its Medium‑Large size accommodates vessels ranging from 3 mm to 10 mm in diameter. Each box contains 84 clips (6 clips per cartridge × 14 cartridges).
These clips feature an innovative hinge-and-boss locking design with integrated teeth that securely grip tissue while offering tactile and audible confirmation of closure. The polymer material is inert, radiolucent, and compatible with CT, MRI, and X‑ray imaging. With proven performance backed by over 80 peer‑reviewed studies, Medium–Large clips exhibit at least five times greater lateral pull-off resistance and 1.8 times higher leak resistance compared to leading metal alternatives. Designed to ligate medium-to-large vessels safely and effectively, they support open, laparoscopic, and robotic surgical applications.
