5 NEEDLE TYPES SMI surgical needles are manufactured from highest quality stainless steel grades for outstanding performance, combining high ductility and strong bending moment. Advanced silicon coating ensures smooth penetration and reduced tissue trauma. The shape of the needle body is designed in order to allow maximum stability in the needle holder. 5/8 CIRCLE 1/2 CIRCLE 3/8 CIRCLE 1/4 CIRCLE J-NEEDLE STRAIGHT TAPER POINT A gradual taper to a round bodied needle. SIDE CUTTING SPATULA NEEDLES Needle with cutting edges on the two sides. TAPERCUT POINT Balanced, cutting point-tapering into a round bodied needle. SOFT CUTTING POINT - CORONARY A minute point followed by a round body and a rectangular main body for better penetration in cardiovascular surgery. REVERSE CUTTING A triangular body offers a third cutting edge on the outer convex curvature. CONVENTIONAL CUTTING A triangular body offers a third cutting edge on the inside concave curvature. EASY PASS NEEDLE Precision point with extra sharpening. BLUNT NEEDLE Cylindrical bodied needle with a rounded point. For soft tissue such as in liver and kidneys. Reduced risk of needle stick injuries.

6 EASY PASS NEEDLE Sharp and strong Easy passing Every pass feels like the first one The Easy Pass needle combines 3 advanced technologies to a prime precision needle: Advanced needle coating technology Precision point with extra sharpening A new generation of maraging stainless steel CHARACTERISTICS Precision point with extra sharpening A new generation of maraging stainless steel Advanced needle coating technology Silicone coating covers entire surgical needle BENEFITS Excellent penetration to reduce patient trauma and to maintain intimal integrity Optimal and predicable penetration Long-lasting sharpness over a multiplicity of passes Significantly sharper pass after pass Best bending and break resistance Optimal combination of strength and ductility Extremely smooth surface Better penetration, control and needle passage Maintains needle sharpness from start to finish over multiple passes INDICATIONS Cosmetic and plastic surgery Penetration performance improved by 40%- 50%compared to standard cutting needles. 1st penetration 10th penetration Easy Pass needle Standard cutting needle Easy Pass needle Standard cutting needle Penetration force Penetration force
