Overview
The performance characteristics of the Wisper wire include the following:
Structure
- Durasteel™ Core-to-tip designed to improve steering, durable shape retention and tactile feedback
- Full Polymer cover with Hydrophilic coating intended for deliverability and smooth lesion access
- Responsease™ “transitionless” core grind designed to provide improved tracking and better torque response
- Tip coils designed to provide softer, shapeable tip and also improve tactile feedback
