Decades of metallurgy expertise guiding the evolution of cardiovascular devices.
Rigorous testing and process control designed for life-critical applications.
Our metallurgists partner with you to refine materials and advance development.
Our materials enable expandable stents with high elastic modulus, low recoil, and thinner struts through strong tensile properties. Reducing strut thickness improves clinical performance and reduces stent size, enabling access to smaller vessels.
Nonmagnetic with a unique combination of ultra-high tensile strength, good ductility and toughness, with excellent corrosion resistance
Nonmagnetic solid-solution strengthened cobalt base alloy with oxidation-corrosion, good ductility, and toughness
Stability under high fatigue requirements and good ductility with a combination of strength and corrosion resistance. Non ferromagnetic, and MRI safe
Minimally invasive procedures via small keyhole incisions minimize patient damage and accelerate healing times. Small-diameter cobalt allows for efficient processing for fine applications to enable minimally invasive surgeries.
