More comfortable operation - Now available with cushioned grips. The grips will withstand repeated exposure to cleaning and sterilizing solutions, as well as exposure to some autoclave processes. Grips can be removed, if necessary. (Also available without grips)
Enhanced corrosion resistance - Manufactured using a combination of stainless steel, and hard plated, steel components where both corrosion resistance and increased wear and lubricity are required for optimum function.
Enhanced finishing of components and crimper jaws - Newly added, 6-step, micro-surface finish and polishing process to components that require additional ear and lubricity characteristics, such as the jaws. The enhanced surface finish provides smoother operation, and allows the "flow" of the material during the crimping process to be more fluid, providing consistently tight and uniformly crimped seals.
