Gore Introduces Newly Enhanced Microminiature Round Cable For Medical Applications

Elkton, MD – W. L. Gore & Associates (Gore) recently announced the launch of an enhanced microminiature round cable for medical applications. When size and electrical integrity are critical, GORE™ Microminiature Round Cable provides one of the smallest, most durable medical cable solutions.

A variety of medical devices can benefit from GORE Microminiature Round Cable including electrophysiology products and small diameter flexible endoscopes, where real estate is a premium and reliability is paramount.

Through the use of GORE High Strength Toughened Fluoropolymer (HSTF) and low dielectric constant expanded PTFE (ePTFE) material, GORE Microminiature Round Cable maintains its performance through device flexure, abrasion during routing, or tracking and sterilization. GORE HSTF material is an advanced biocompatible dielectric material that produces superior mechanical and electrical properties. Mechanical property benefits include increased scrape abrasion resistance, cut-through resistance, and improved pinhole-free performance in ultra-thin profiles.
