Flexible Laser Cut Hypo Tubes

Jul 02, 2015

Flexible laser cut hypotubes are used in delivery systems for minimally invasive interventions due to their combination of push, trackability, torque and kink resistance.

These performance characteristics have established the hypotube as the device shaft of choice for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) procedure applications.

Recognising these superior performance benefits, medical device manufacturers have adopted flexible laser cut hypotubes in new procedure application areas, such as abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), neurology, peripheral vascular interventions and imaging.

Hypotubes are generally produced from 300 series stainless steel tubing, commonly 304 stainless steel (1.4301) and also in 316 (1.4401) and 17-7PH (AMS 5528).

With laser cutting patterns along the hypotube the medical device design engineer can tailor the flexibility from the proximal to distal end. Also the laser cut pattern can determine the combination of push, trackability, torque and kink resistance.
