Modified tips are insulated everywhere but the distal 3-5 mm of the electrode shaft with PTFE insulation that resists splitting up to 700° F, minimizing the likelihood of damage to surrounding tissue
Megadyne’s trademarked green PTFE coating is designed to save surgeons time, when cleaning is needed, only a wipe with a damp sponge is required
Utilizes a pure PTFE coating that resists flaking at high temperatures
The PTFE coating also helps reduce eschar buildup during surgical procedures, enabling surgeons to use lower power settings
Lower power settings mean less thermal necrosis to surrounding tissue and a further reduction in eschar buildup
