Customized materials deliver the strength, control, and durability in interventional precision tools

Precision matters most when devices must navigate complex anatomy and deploy reliably at the target site. Our wire‑based materials and components deliver strength, torqueability, pushability, elasticity, kink resistance, and fatigue life, without compromising size

Let’s take a closer look at how our customized products deliver the right mechanical performance for a range of critical devices:

Guidewires:

Our materials are used in guidewires for stents, catheters, stimulation devices, and more, providing the balance of flexibility and control required for safe navigation.

·      Excellent kink resistance and elasticity for precise movement through tortuous anatomy

·      High-fatigue resistance for long‑term durability in vasculature

·      Options for MRI compatibility and electrical conduction to support advanced imaging and feedback

Delivery and deployment systems:

From stent delivery to embolic protection and valve deployment, our products offer consistent performance.

·      Precise memory shape retention for dependable deployment

·      Custom shapes for baskets, hooks, and control arms

·      Integration for assemblies and post‑processing to streamline your manufacturing

Catheter reinforcement solutions and drive components:

We support catheter shafts, steerable tips, torque coils, and drive wires with materials designed for strength and dimensional stability.

·      SLT® wire, strands, and cables for torsional strength, control, and steerability

·      Custom braiding mandrels to enhance dimensional stability

In addition to miniaturization, modern interventional procedures require materials engineered for optimal mechanical performance to access hard-to-reach areas.
