Tapered wire has been widely used for crafting exceptional guidewires and delivery system applications. At KT Medical, we skillfully draw and cut wire with our state-of-the-art facilities, enabling us to swiftly redesign the features of wire grinding while upholding impeccable quality. Utilizing stainless steel and nitinol as raw materials for centerless grinding, we can create multiple taper sections, maintain a continuous slope, achieve significant length with consistent diameter, and even craft a combined profile.
