The C5-2 Biopsy Needle Guide (JSM-051) is a positioning accessory, not a repairable device: when a guide is cracked, worn or no longer locks onto the probe, the correct action is replacement. This page helps you confirm the right replacement for your exact probe.

Why biopsy guides are replaced rather than repaired
Guides take repeated mounting, sterilization and needle passes. Wear accumulates in the attachment points and needle channel, and there is no economical way to re-machine a worn guide back into tolerance. Replacement is the standard practice.
When to replace the guide
- Any crack in the bracket or channel, however small
- Loose or unreliable locking onto the probe
- The needle channel is worn, scored or lets the needle wander
- Deformation after autoclaving or disinfection
- Discoloration combined with brittleness of the material
Confirm fit before ordering a replacement
- Photograph the probe’s full manufacturer and model label and send it with the request.
- Include photos of the existing guide or bracket and where it clips onto the probe.
- Quote the reference number printed on the guide or bracket, if legible.
- State the needle gauges you work with and whether reusable or disposable is required.
- Confirm sterilization or disinfection requirements in the request.
Similar probe names do not prove that two brackets are interchangeable – the attachment geometry and channel spec decide fit, so compatibility is confirmed against your exact probe label.
Ordering a replacement guide with a probe repair
Ordering a replacement guide alongside a probe repair? Include both in one request with the probe label photo – compatibility for the guide and repairability for the probe get confirmed in a single assessment.
The illustration is representative and is not a photograph of this exact guide. This record does not claim OEM authorization or universal fit. Compatibility, included components, availability and commercial terms are confirmed in writing for the exact probe and guide reference.
