Choosing an FUE blade is a configuration decision before it is a purchase decision. This guide collects the C-50 data in one place — tip widths from 0.7 mm to 1.7 mm, blade lengths of 4.5, 5.0 and 5.5 mm, 0.25 mm thickness, and 45° or 60° tip angles — then explains how a sapphire hair transplant slit blade performs the primary recipient cut, where a sapphire hair transplant channel opener fits into the same workflow, and which handle, case and quote details to confirm before you order.
The three tool families are often discussed together because they all create or shape a recipient site, but they are ordered for different steps, different geometry and different handling routines. Knowing which family you are buying keeps a specification conversation short.
A slit blade makes the initial recipient channel that receives a graft. The critical variables are tip width, blade length and entry angle, because those three set the size and direction of the opening. The C-50 is a sapphire slit blade offered in 16 tip widths with 45° and 60° options.
See the C-50 slit bladeA channel opener works on a channel that already exists — re-opening a site, easing a channel that is slightly tight for the planned graft, or preparing a recipient pocket at a defined angle. Because it is chosen for the opening step rather than the first cut, width and bevel matter more than raw cutting length.
An implanter carries the graft inside the instrument and places it as the site is created, which removes one handling step but changes how depth and angle are controlled. It requires a matched loading routine and a different consumable plan, so it is usually evaluated as a workflow change rather than a blade swap.
Every C-50 variant is built from the same parameter set. Model C-50 · Product No. PTC500001 · 0.25 mm thickness · titanium and sapphire construction · 4.5, 5.0 or 5.5 mm blade length · 45° or 60° entry angle · 16 tip widths from 0.7 mm to 1.7 mm.

Tip width is the single parameter that changes most often between cases. The bands below are planning conventions used to start a conversation, not product specifications, and the final choice stays a clinical judgement based on graft calibre, skin characteristics and the density plan.
| Width band | Graft profile typically planned | Where teams usually start |
|---|---|---|
| 0.7 – 0.8 mm | Single-hair grafts and fine hairline transitions where a compact wound footprint matters. | Hairline, temple points and other single-hair detail work. |
| 0.9 – 1.0 mm | Single-to-double hair grafts; the broad middle of most frontal zone plans. | Frontal and mid-scalp sessions that mix graft sizes. |
| 1.05 – 1.2 mm | Two-to-three hair grafts where a little more room speeds placement. | Density work behind the hairline. |
| 1.25 – 1.35 mm | Three-to-four hair grafts with thicker shafts. | Crown and larger multi-hair grafts. |
| 1.4 – 1.5 mm | Multi-hair grafts from denser donor areas, including coarser shafts. | Body and beard hair work where shafts run thick. |
| 1.6 – 1.7 mm | The largest grafts in the range, with a correspondingly larger wound footprint. | Cases where graft size is prioritised over site tightness. |
Graft popping or graft-to-site mismatch is slowing placement, the planned exit angle is acute, or the hairline needs a tighter, less visible transition. A narrower tip reduces the opening but demands more precise graft sizing upstream.
Multi-hair grafts are being compressed or damaged on insertion, the skin is firmer than expected, or the plan calls for heavier density per square centimetre. Confirm the larger width is still paired with the graft size your team actually dissects.
The C-50 is offered with a 45° or a 60° tip angle. The angle changes how the blade meets the skin and therefore how the slit profile sits relative to the planned hair direction.
A shallower approach lays the slit closer to the skin surface. Surgical teams commonly reach for this profile where the planned hair exit angle is acute and the graft needs to lie flatter — hairline fronts and temple transitions are the usual examples.
Slit profile: longer, more oblique channel.
A steeper approach gives more perpendicular access to the skin, which some teams prefer where the planned exit angle is more upright or where control of depth through firmer tissue is the priority.
Slit profile: shorter, more upright channel.
The blade is only half of the instrument. The C-50 is supplied with an ergonomic titanium handle in a blue or silver finish, and the product is described as compatible with diverse FUE systems.
Sapphire is specified for edge retention and for behaviour under repeated sterilization. The C-50 is described as maintaining cutting sharpness and corrosion resistance under autoclaving conditions, and every blade ships with a dust cover.
Each blade sits in a high-temperature resistant plastic case designed to avoid deformation during high-temperature sterilization. Three case styles are offered, so the case can match how your clinic stores, labels and passes instruments into the room.
Blade cases are packed into sturdy cardboard boxes for transport. For multi-site clinics this is the unit that matters at goods-in: confirm carton counts and labelling when quantity is quoted.
The product page states manufacture in compliance with ISO 13485. Keep that reference on file with your incoming-goods documentation so the certificate trail matches the batch you receive.
Follow your clinic's validated cycle for sapphire blades and titanium handles. The published autoclave statements describe material behaviour, not a substitute for your own validated protocol.
Read the scenario that matches your case, check the product fact it depends on, then make the buying decision before you open a quote.
Product fact: the C-50 range starts at 0.7 mm and every width is available at 45° or 60°.
Buyer decision: order the narrowest two or three widths in your most-used blade length, and include both angles so the surgeon can confirm the profile on the first cases rather than reordering.
Product fact: 1.05 mm to 1.2 mm widths sit in the middle of the matrix, with 4.5, 5.0 and 5.5 mm lengths.
Buyer decision: quote the one or two widths your placement routine settles on in bulk, and keep the third length as a trial quantity rather than a full case.
Product fact: blade length is a separate variable from tip width, so a short length can be paired with the narrowest tip.
Buyer decision: order detail-work blades as a separate line item with distinct case styles so they are not mixed into scalp stock.
Product fact: 1.0 mm, 1.2 mm and 1.5 mm are also listed as single-width C-50 product pages.
Buyer decision: use the single-width listings when you want a simple reorder line, and the full matrix when a new surgeon needs the whole range in front of them.
Product fact: handles are offered in blue or silver with titanium construction.
Buyer decision: split handle colours by surgeon or by procedure type, and quote both finishes in the same order so the kit logic survives staff changes.
Product fact: the C-50 is listed as a customised blade with three case styles and cardboard logistics packaging.
Buyer decision: send the exact width, length and angle list, the preferred case style and the delivery destination together, so the quote reflects the real configuration instead of a default.
C-50 pricing is quote-based: the product page runs a quote list rather than an online checkout, so the fastest route to an accurate figure is a complete configuration in one message.
