Cele L280 A18 handle

Technical characteristics of the CELE L280 A18 GRIP

The CELE L280 A18 HANDLE is a precision surgical instrument used in veterinary electrosurgical procedures. Its 280 mm long structure, made of high thermal and electrical resistance polymers, allows for reliable and controlled manipulation during complex surgical interventions. Equipped with A18 connectors, this handle ensures compatibility with a wide range of electrosurgical equipment used in veterinary clinics.

Compatibility with electrosurgical units and clinical applications

Thanks to its universal A18 connector, the CELE L280 A18 handpiece integrates easily with most electrosurgical units that use standard monopolar electrodes. It is especially suitable for procedures requiring cutting, coagulation, and hemostasis, making it useful in soft tissue surgery, veterinary oncology, and laparoscopic techniques. Its elongated design allows for optimal reach in complex anatomies, including large animals such as horses and cattle.

Manufacturing materials and sterilization processes

Manufactured with medical-grade polymers that have undergone biocompatibility testing according to ISO standards, the CELE L280 A18 handle ensures durability and safety with every use. Its resistance to over 100 autoclave cycles makes it a reusable tool, ideal for clinics with a high surgical workload. The structure maintains its mechanical and functional integrity even after multiple sterilization processes, without compromising the safety of either the patient or the professional.

Ergonomic design and operational safety

The ergonomic design of the CELE L280 A18 handle optimizes surgical control during prolonged procedures. Its textured, non-slip surface provides a firm grip, even in the presence of fluids. Furthermore, it incorporates thermal and electrical insulation barriers to prevent heat transfer or accidental shocks, protecting both the operator and the patient during the surgical procedure.
