LigaSure™ Technology
Delivering performance beyond expectations
Across the range of products and procedures, LigaSure™ technology delivers a unique combination of pressure and energy to create a consistent seal with each application.
We’ve combined the trusted performance of LigaSure™ vessel-sealing technology with nonstick nano-coating on the jaws of our blunt tip sealers/dividers. That means greater efficiency and fewer interruptions in the OR.1,†
Jaws that stick because of eschar buildup can affect device performance and disrupt the flow of your procedures. Our nonstick jaws help keep cleaning to a minimum and maximize your efficiency.([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal test report #RE00063136, Lig-42 report product claims LF18XX: benchtop testing conducted using porcine uterine tissue, a wet gauze cleaning fixture, and optical imaging analysis.
