Improve Production Yields with Ultra-Smooth Surfaces

Our precision-ground mandrels, polished to an ultra-smooth finish of up to 2 Ra, ensure cleaner catheter pulls with fewer defects. This level of surface integrity reduces friction and prevents snags, leading to more consistent lumen geometry and less material scrap. By minimizing imperfections from the start, you can improve overall yield and maintain stable, predictable production runs.

Boost Performance with Engineered Materials

Select from a wide range of materials, including Nitinol, tool steels, and PTFE-coated stainless steel, to meet specific application needs. Nitinol “Super Mandrels” offer superior kink resistance and last up to ten times longer than standard options, significantly reducing downtime. Hollow tube mandrels enhance thermal properties to shorten cooling cycles, maximizing your manufacturing capacity and efficiency.
