Claim 0:
1. A device for treating a tissue, comprising:
a capsule extending longitudinally from a proximal end to a distal end and including a channel extending therethrough; and
first and second clip jaws, proximal ends of which are slidably received within the channel of the capsule so that the first and second clip jaws are movable between an open configuration, in which distal ends of the first and second clip jaws extend distally past the distal end of the capsule to be separated from one another, and a closed configuration, in which the distal ends of the first and second clips jaws move toward each other, the first clip jaw including a rib feature extending longitudinally along the first clip jaw and extending in at least one direction from an external surface of the first clip jaw, the rib feature configured to increase a moment of inertia and prevent bending of the first clip jaw.
