SWITCH TO NATURALLY INSULATIVE AND NEVER LOOK BACK
Unlike metal tubing, Polygon composite medical tubing is non-conductive right from the start, which means it’s naturally safer for patients and operators.
Key Features
- High strength-to-weight ratio
- High torsional stability
- Outstanding dielectric properties
- Electromagnetically transparent
- Proven bio-compatibility; safe inside the body for 24 hours
- ISO 10993 compliant
- Non-reflective optical characteristics
- Compatible with conventional sterilization processes
- No secondary sheathing required
- Numerous fabrication options
What's in the sample kit
Polygon works with some of the largest medical OEMs in the world to provide naturally insulative tubing for a safer patient experience. Polygon medical tubes are 100% customized to your application and its exact needs. Get your samples today to explore the unique capabilities of composites.
