Nordson Medical - Co-Extruded/Stripe Tubing

Co-extruded multi-layer tubing can combine materials with different but complementary properties, including durometer, color, opacity, radiopacity, or tensile strength, to provide custom catheter solutions. The most common application is medical extruded tubing with radiopaque stripes visible under x-ray. This is accomplished by encapsulating stripes containing a filler visible under x-ray within the wall of the tubing.
