INDUSTRY'S LONGEST
WORKING LENGTHS
Sublime™ Radial Access .014 and .018 RX PTA catheters are available in the industry's longest working lengths at 220 and 250 cm, suitable for above- or below-the-knee and pedal loop revascularization.
Purpose-Built for a Transradial Approach
The Sublime .014 and .018 RX PTA catheter shafts are composed of a supportive proximal segment, a more flexible distal segment, and a mid-shaft segment that transitions from supportive to flexible. This provides the necessary pushability and flexibility to navigate tortuous anatomy.
These catheters also feature the industry's longest rapid exchange segments in 45 cm and 50 cm, respectively, to provide the support and deliverability expected from a more conventional over-the-wire design.
PROXIMAL SHAFT
Pushability
Stainless steel hypotube and polymer outer jacket work together to provide increased pushability
MID SHAFT
Pushability without limiting flexibility
Stainless steel spiral laser-cut hypotube incorporates a constant pitch that balances supportiveness and flexibility to allow for continued pushability without limiting flexibility
DISTAL SHAFT
Increased flexibility
Stainless steel spiral laser-cut hypotube incorporates a decreasing spiral pitch that increases flexibility to ensure the device can track through the most tortuous anatomy
"With the longer Sublime radial access balloons, I can do 50% more cases without having to do a femoral stick."

Testing Method .014
Pushability: Each device was tested using an MSI™ track tester water heater with water temperature of 37° ±2°C. Each device was advanced through the track tester into a distal load cell and the maximum proximal and distal forces were measured and a percentage difference between the proximal and distal force was calculated.
Crossability: Each device was tested using a lesion containment fixture and MSI™ track tester water heater with water temperature of 37° ±2°C. A guidewire was used to cross the mock lesion. Each device was tracked through the track tester where the catheter tip was proximal to the lesion. The catheter was then advanced through the lesion and maximum force (gf) and average force (gf) was measured.
