Meeting the highest standards. With zero compromise.

Optimized pushability and torqueability16 yarns tungsten braid provides support, increased pushability and best-in class torqueability

Enhanced & total visibilityTungsten RO braid runs through the entire catheter length, allowing enhanced visbility under fluoroscopy. Distal RO marker enhances tip visibility

Gradual flexibility7 segments high performance polymersdesigned to enhance proximal support & pushability while providing optimal flexibility & trackability to the distal tip.

Easy navigationthrough tortuousvesselsMade possible by hydrophilic coating PROGREAT® DRAKON™

Lipiodol® Ultra-Fluid compatible

Smooth deliveryInner PTFE lumen facilitates smooth passage of fluids, embolic agents and devices (such as guidewires).
