5.2F proximal shaft for contrast injection with device in sheath

Clinically proven stent for the treatment of iliac disease¹

Designed to provide suficient chronic outward force and flexibility

Segmented stent design and strut thickness to provide sufficient chronic outward force in the iliac territory, while the peak-to-valley design and S-articulating connecting bars provide multi-directional flexibility and avoid fish-scaling in tortuous arteries

proBIO® silicon carbide coating reduces ion release by acting as an effective and reliable barrier to nickel and other heavy metal ion diffusion2

Pull-back delivery system for simple stent deployment

Pull-back delivery system enables simple stent deployment, while the easy release relieves friction of introducer valve on the retractable shaft during stent deployment, providing a smoother action

5.2F proximal shaft for contrast injection with device in sheath³

6F distal shaft with a 5.2F proximal shaft allows contrast injection while the device is positioned inside the introducer and across the lesion
