Description
Product Overview
The LithoWise™ 550µm Holmium Laser Fiber is engineered for demanding holmium:YAG laser applications that require greater durability and maximum power handling. With a 550µm fiber core, this model supports up to 80W of power, making it one of the most robust disposable fibers available.
Unlike standard fibers that lose energy under bend, LithoWise™ fibers feature Crosshair Alignment Technology for accurate targeting and maximum beam-to-core transfer. Even under scope bends, the 550µm fiber holds the laser beam and delivers consistent performance.
Distinctly “Wise” Features

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How much power can the 550µm fiber deliver?
A: Up to 80 watts, making it one of the most durable options for energy-intensive procedures.
Q: What procedures is the 550µm fiber best suited for?
A: It’s ideal for stone fragmentation in urology, and for cases requiring maximum energy and durability.
Q: Does a larger core reduce flexibility?
A: Yes, while the 550µm fiber is less flexible than smaller cores, it provides greater durability and power handling.
Q: Is it compatible with my holmium laser system?
A: Yes — the SMA 905 connector ensures compatibility with most holmium:YAG systems.
Q: Are these fibers reusable?
A: No, LithoWise™ fibers are single-use disposables, packaged sterile for safety.
