Functional description
These guidewires are designed to provide improved torque response and crossing while maintaining tactile feedback in stenotic vessels. The stainless steel core runs through the entire length of the wire. All wires have maximum diameter of 0.0140" and are provided in 190cm extendable and 300cm exchangeable lengths. The distal core segment of this guide wire is offered in 5 configurations. Each configuration is identical in design except for those design features that impact tip flexibility.
