FAQs on Medical Grade Platinum-Iridium Tubes
Q1: What is the typical composition of your biocompatible radiopaque platinum iridium alloy tubing?
A: Primarily Pt90/Ir10 medical-grade alloy (per ASTM B684), with options for Pt80/Ir20 or custom ratios. This ensures optimal radiopacity and biocompatibility for catheter tips and stent delivery systems.
Q2: Are these platinum iridium capillary tubes suitable for fluoroscopic visibility in interventional cardiology?
A: Yes – our radiopaque medical tubing delivers exceptional X-ray contrast, making it the preferred choice for marker bands in stent deployment and minimally invasive catheter procedures.
Q3: Do your platinum iridium tubes meet biocompatibility standards for long-term implants?
A: Absolutely. All tubing complies with ISO 10993 and relevant ASTM standards, confirming safety for permanent or temporary contact in medical electronics and precision components.
Q4: Can you provide custom sizes for catheter tips and stent delivery systems?
A: Yes. We offer full customization of OD, ID, wall thickness, and length (up to 1000 mm) with tight tolerances for OEM radiopaque platinum iridium tubing requirements.
Q5: What is the difference between platinum iridium tubes and marker bands?
A: Our seamless platinum iridium capillary tubes serve as the raw material for precision-cut radiopaque marker bands used on catheters and stents, or can be used directly as structural tubing in catheter tips.
