Gore Introduces Newly Enhanced Microminiature Round Cable for Medical Applications
Elkton, Md. (September 2007) W. L. Gore & Associates (Gore) launches an enhanced microminiature round cable for medical applications. When size and electrical integrity are critical, GORE™ Microminiature Round Cable provides one of the smallest, most durable medical cable solutions.
A variety of medical devices can benefit from GORE™ Microminiature Round Cable including electrophysiology products and small diameter flexible endoscopes, where real estate is a premium and reliability is paramount.
Through the use of GORE™ High Strength Toughened Fluoropolymer (HSTF) and low dielectric constant expanded PTFE (ePTFE) material, GORE™ Microminiature Round Cable maintains its performance through device flexure, abrasion during routing, or tracking and sterilization. GORE™ HSTF material is an advanced biocompatible dielectric material that produces superior mechanical and electrical properties. Mechanical property benefits include increased scrape abrasion resistance, cut-through resistance, and improved pinhole-free performance in ultra-thin profiles.
