 What are PTFE Extrusions?

PTFE Extrusions are widely used in the medical industry to develop various PTCA products- PTFE Liners, catheters, and other invasive products. PTFE is the best polymer the healthcare industry prefers to design these sensitive devices.

PTFE is a robust and adaptable material with numerous applications in various medical devices. E.g., you can frequently use PTFE as a catheter liner in medical equipment. In addition, you can use catheters lined with PTFE when treating patients with urinary incontinence, UTI, and kidney stones.

Due to its use as a catheter liner, PTFE, or Polytetrafluoroethylene, is particularly well-liked in the medical sector. 

Properties of PTFE Extrusions:

1. Chemically inert

2. Highest friction-resistance,

3. It has an intense working thermal range of -270°C to 260°C

4. Excellent dielectric insulator

5. Biocompatibility

Applications of PTFE Extrusions:

· Catheters

· Introducer Sheaths

· Endoscopy

· PTFE Liners

VasPilot Healtchare manufactures High-Precision PTFE Extrusions:

VasPilot Healthcare is a well-known company conducting research and development in manufacturing PTFE Extrusions, catheters, their components, and PTCA devices. The fact that PTFE is non-stick was one of many factors considered by VasPilot Healthcare professionals. They selected it due to its strength and toughness as well. Due to its intensity, PTFE is one of the fluoropolymers of choice for medical equipment that must resist repeated use. In addition, PTFE is strong, non-stick, and biocompatible. Therefore, it would have no adverse effects on the body, making it a safe material for medical equipment. To explore more about PTFE Extrusions, you can visit their website.

Guide Catheters- An Introduction

A Guide Catheter enables the convenient placement of lasers, stents, and balloons for angioplasty procedures. For successful interventional cardiology, an ideal guide catheter is crucial. PTFE serves the purpose of a baseliner while manufacturing Guiding Catheters. It provides an exceedingly smooth surface.

Why is a Guide Catheter preferred over a simple catheter?

• Stiffer shaft 

• Ultra-thin walls 

• Larger internal lumen diameter

• More angulated tip

• Reinforced construction

• Qualities of a Guide Catheter:

• Excellent shape retention capacity giving maximum reliability for long-term operation

• Frictionless internal movements in the vessel

• Soft automated tip to reduce the damage to the tissues and vessels

• Variable flexibility

• Highly stable

• Support for device & wire transport

• Compatible with the lumen and other devices
