Product Description
Product Overview
Endoscope Hypotube is a core transmission and support tube component for flexible endoscopes and disposable minimally invasive endoscopes. It is made from medical-grade stainless steel or nitinol thin-wall tubing with precision laser slotting, balancing pushability, torque transmission, and flexibility/kink resistance. It is used for endoscopic bending actuation and instrument channel support, and dimensions, slot patterns, and coatings can all be customized.
Product Advantages
Slotted structure provides flexible bending and kink resistance, with stable push-pull and torque transmission
Medical-grade base material, good biocompatibility, and corrosion resistance
Thin wall and large lumen save internal space and are suitable for endoscope miniaturization
Optional electropolishing and PTFE coating reduce friction
Fully customizable parameters, supporting prototyping and mass production
Applications
Disposable endoscopes, flexible endoscope bending actuation components, interventional catheters, and minimally invasive instrument transmission tubes.
