Karl Storz 26175R 5mm Shaft 1.6mm Needle Tip Luer Lock 13-1/4"

Karl Storz 26175R Laparoscopic Puncture & Aspiration Needle

The Karl Storz 26175R is a precision-engineered instrument designed for fluid management and anatomical access during minimally invasive surgery. Featuring a standard 5 mm shaft diameter, this needle integrates seamlessly into your existing laparoscopic tray, fitting all 5 mm trocars and ports. The ultra-fine 1.6 mm needle tip allows for targeted puncture and aspiration with minimal tissue trauma, making it ideal for gallbladder decompression, cyst drainage, or localized irrigation in general surgery, gynecology, and urology.

Constructed from high-grade German stainless steel, the 26175R is a reusable instrument designed to withstand the rigors of repeated sterilization. Its 13-1/4 inch (36 cm) working length provides the necessary reach for deep-cavity access, while the integrated Luer-lock hub ensures a secure, standardized connection to syringes and suction-irrigation systems.
