Catheter-Based
Thermech coats biomedical equipment with PTFE and nanoceramic coatings to reduce pain and difficulty from friction and safely prevent microorganism growth. Coating devices used in Chromatography and Fluid Handling also minimize carryover and clean-up.

Thermech Coats the Following:

  • Wires
  • Guidewires
  • Pull Wires
  • Cables
  • Needles
  • Hypotubes (ID or OD)
  • Catheter Shafts (ID or OD) Stylets
  • Coil Pipes (ID or OD) Needles
  • Probes
  • Tubing
  • Cannulas

Tooling
Coated tooling allows for safer and faster production. Smoother, lubricious surfaces create ideal conditions for mandrel release. Heat and chemical resistance offered by Thermech’s coatings are also critical factors of performance.

Thermech coats the following:

  • Mandrels used for reflowing catheter shafts and for bonding operations
  • Tips and dies used for extruding plastic tubing
  • Plungers
  • Tips and dies used for extruding micro tubing

Thermech works with medical companies from the concept to production, including development and PPAP approval.
