Features and Benefits

Ultra-low 0.018" lesion entry profile

  • Enhances lesion access and entry
  • Facilitates crossing of tight occlusions and challenging vasculature
  • Enables delivery with and exchange of 0.014” guidewires


Best-in-class push

  • Robust balloon catheter tip design maximizes pushability
  • Strong shaft material and hydrophilic coating facilitates excellent cross


Push defined as measure of shaft’s ability to transmit force to distal tip in straight-line configuration.


Excellent visibility

  • Three radiopaque markers offer enhanced visibility on imaging equipment
  • Contrasting purple tip simplifies wire backloading
  • Clear shaft provides visibility of bleedback
