Stainless Steel Medical Hypotube Description
Stainless Steel Medical Hypotube is a long metal capillary tube, an essential component of
micro-invasive treatment catheters. It works in conjunction with balloons and
stents to open arterial blockages. The balloon portion of the catheter is
attached to the distal end of the hypotube. Once inserted into the human body,
the hypotube guides the balloon through the tortuous blood vessels toward the
site of the arterial blockage. During this process, the hypotube provides
resistance to torsion and bending, ensuring smooth navigation, advancement,
tracking, and rotation within the body’s structure.
Stainless Steel Medical Hypotube Applications
·
Micro-invasive treatments: Used as a key
component in catheters for minimally invasive procedures.
·
Arterial blockage treatment: Works in
conjunction with balloons and stents to open arterial blockages.
·
Smooth navigation through blood vessels:
Facilitates the movement of balloons through tortuous blood vessels.

Manufacturing Process
1. Tube Formation: High-quality stainless steel is precisely
drawn and formed into the required tube dimensions.
2. Cutting: Tubes are carefully cut to the specified lengths
for further processing.
3. PTFE Coating: A durable PTFE (Teflon) coating is applied to
the tubes for enhanced lubrication and protection.
4. Labeling: Each tube is labeled with precise information for
identification and traceability.
5. Welding Wires: Stainless steel wires are welded to the tube
ends for secure and reliable connections.
6. Laser Adapter Injection: Laser adapters are precisely
injected to ensure perfect fitment and functionality.
7. Cleaning: The tubes undergo rigorous cleaning to remove any
impurity
8. Packing: Finally, the completed tubes are carefully packed
in protective packaging to maintain their integrity during transportation.
Stainless Steel Medical Hypotube FAQs
Q1. What is a Stainless Steel Medical Hypotube?
A Stainless Steel Medical Hypotube is a long, thin metal
capillary tube used as a critical component in micro-invasive catheters,
primarily for treating arterial blockages in medical procedures.
Q2. What is the purpose of the Stainless Steel Medical
Hypotube?
It is used in medical catheters to guide balloons and stents
to the site of arterial blockages, enabling the balloon to open the blockage by
being pushed through tortuous blood vessels. It ensures smooth navigation and
advancement, even in challenging vascular structures.
Q3. What are the advantages of using Stainless Steel
Medical Hypotubes?
Stainless Steel Medical Hypotubes offer excellent resistance
to torsion and bending, ensuring smooth tracking, rotation, and advancement
during procedures. They are also highly flexible and durable, making them ideal
for use in complex vascular interventions.
