Ethicon W31G Bone Wax 2.5 Grams BX/12 OPEN BOX - FULL

Ethicon W31G Bone Wax 2.5 Grams BX/12 OPEN BOX - FULL

Ethicon W31G Bone Wax is a sterile, non-absorbable mixture of beeswax, paraffin, and isopropyl palmitate designed for the immediate control of bleeding from bone surfaces. It acts as a mechanical tamponade, physically plugging the osseous canals and ruptured vessels within the bone (such as the diploic veins in the skull or the cancellous bone of the sternum) to achieve rapid hemostasis.
