Hydrophilic guidewire is equipped with a hydrophilic coating for smooth, rapid movement through tortuous vessels and crossability over difficult lesions. The Glidewire technology features a super-elastic nitinol core for optimal performance and a core-to-tip design that provides 1:1 torque ratio. It is resistant to kinks, allowing the device to maintain integrity and consistent reliablity through procedures. Tungsten in polyurethane jacket enhances radiopacity.
