Disposable Laparoscopic Trocars — 5 / 10 / 12 / 15mm

Bladeless trocars use a conical or pyramidal dilating tip that spreads tissue apart rather than cutting — reducing the risk of port-site bleeding, inadvertent visceral injury, and post-operative port-site hernia. Bladed trocars use a sharp cutting obturator that requires less insertion force, which is advantageous for obese patients with thick abdominal walls. Bladeless is the current preferred design for most laparoscopic procedures due to its superior safety profile. We supply both; bladeless is recommended for most indications.

All our trocars maintain gas-tight seal integrity at 20mmHg CO2 pressure — which is the standard upper limit of laparoscopic insufflation pressure (typical working pressure is 12 to 15mmHg). The multi-seal valve system is tested per ISO 8538 valve leak standard. Zero gas leakage at rated pressure across 100% of production units.

Each 12mm trocar includes two reducer caps: a 12mm-to-10mm reducer for use with 10mm laparoscopic instruments, and a 12mm-to-5mm reducer for 5mm instruments. This allows a single 12mm trocar to accept instruments of three different diameters without loss of CO2 seal — increasing port flexibility and reducing the number of different trocars needed in a laparoscopic setup. Reducer caps are individually sterile wrapped and packed with the trocar.

Our 8mm and 12mm versions are designed with dimensions compatible with standard robotic arm trocar adapters. Compatibility varies by robotic system generation — contact us with your specific robot model (da Vinci Si, X, Xi, or Intuitive Ion) for confirmation. Custom robotic-specific trocar dimensions are available at 500 pcs MOQ.

Standard working lengths are 70mm (standard), 100mm (extended), and 150mm (bariatric/obese). Extended and bariatric length trocars are required when the distance from skin to peritoneum exceeds the standard 70mm length — common in morbidly obese patients where a standard trocar may not reach the peritoneal cavity. Specify working length at inquiry.

Trumpet (flap) valve trocars use a spring-loaded flap mechanism that opens when an instrument is inserted and closes when it is withdrawn — providing positive CO2 seal even when instruments are not present. Duckbill valve trocars use a slit-valve mechanism that is simpler and lower profile but may allow minor gas leak when no instrument is present. Trumpet valve is standard for most laparoscopic applications; duckbill is preferred for NOTES and single-port procedures where a lower-profile trocar is needed.

Yes. Thread-lock trocars have a helical thread on the outer cannula that screws into the abdominal wall, preventing trocar displacement during instrument exchanges — particularly important for obese patients, prolonged procedures, and robotic surgery where external trocar manipulation is limited. Available from 500 pcs MOQ.

500 pcs per size for custom peel-pack label. 1000 pcs for outer carton printing with your brand. Mixed-size orders (e.g. 200 pcs x 5mm + 300 pcs x 12mm) accepted when total order meets 500 pcs overall. CE documentation under your product name supplied.

Yes. Each trocar is individually EO sterilized in a peel-pack. SAL 10e-6. Shelf life 3 years from sterilization date. The obturator and cannula are packed as a complete assembled unit ready for immediate use at the sterile field.

Cannula: medical-grade ABS or polycarbonate (PC) depending on size — high impact strength, autoclave-temperature resistant for dimensional stability during EO sterilization. Obturator: ABS with polycarbonate tip for the bladed version; PC throughout for the bladeless dilating tip version. All materials meet ISO 10993 biocompatibility requirements. Material certificates available per batch.

Yes. Optical trocars have a transparent obturator tip that allows a 0-degree laparoscope to be inserted into the obturator during initial entry, providing real-time visualization of the tissue layers as the trocar advances through the abdominal wall. Available in 5mm and 12mm from 500 pcs MOQ. Lead time 30 to 45 days for first production run.

5mm trocars: assistant ports for visualization, retraction, and clip application. 10mm trocars: main working ports for larger instruments, clip appliers, stapler anvils, and specimen retrieval bags. 12mm trocars: linear stapler insertion, specimen retrieval, and robotic arm ports. 15mm trocars: large specimen extraction, large stapler heads, and hand-assist port in hand-assisted laparoscopy.
