GORE™ Thin Wall Coating For Push-Pull Wires

GORE™ Thin Wall Coating For Push-Pull Wires is a consistent thin lubricating layer of high strength toughened fluoropolymer that protects push-pull wires and extends the life of the steering mechanism of a flexible endoscope. This thin wall coating maintains force transmission through the push. This coating can be applied to any wire type and eliminates the need for all dry lubricants such as molybdenum disulfide.

Options available include: coating your current wire, precoated wires, or providing pre-crimped assemblies.
