- ASAHI Technology for Torque and Flexibility
XTRAND is 7 stainless steel micro-strands braided into a rope, then 8 of those ropes are braided into the XTRAND coil.
The XTRAND coil enhances flexibility while increasing torque response.
CHIKAI X 014 soft adopts a distal square core tip for easier and more durable shaping.
Existing round core tip may be more difficult to shape, sometimes leading to an unwanted 3D curve.
CHIKAI X 014 soft shows superior torque in distal MCA/ACA models. CHIKAI X 014 soft transmits torque smoothly; Competitor wires show whipping.
CHIKAI X 014 soft maximizes the flexibility of tip and distal shaft. This atraumatic shaft design reduces the frictional resistance from the vessel wall for safety and better torque response.
