ASAHI Gladius® MG / MG ESProduct Code (REF): AP14R023P
ASAHI Gladius® MG extends the Gladius platform with a modified core construction designed to minimise wire prolapse — the tendency of a polymer-jacketed tip to buckle and fold back on itself when pushed against a resistant proximal cap. By resisting prolapse, Gladius MG keeps the tip aligned with the intended penetration vector, letting the operator apply forward force at fibrous caps and within the occlusion body without losing directional control. In the CTO wire escalation sequence it occupies the step where a standard middle-weight polymer wire deflects or folds, but a full stiff-wire escalation is not yet justified. The polymer jacket and hydrophilic coating preserve the low-friction tracking of the Gladius family in both antegrade and retrograde strategies. 0.014 in platform, compatible with standard coronary microcatheters.
Available under product codes AP14R023P, AP14R023S, AP14R323P, AP14R323S, AP14R024P, AP14R024S, AP14R324P, AP14R324S.

Design & Technology
Technical characteristics and diagrams as published by Asahi Intecc.
Minimizing prolapse
Gladius MG has a modified distal core balance that minimizes a prolapse occurring in the tip.

Excellent Durability
ASAHI Gladius MG maintains shape and guidewire performance even after crossing the lesion.

High Lubricity
ASAHI Gladius MG has excellent lubricity that allows for smooth GW manipulation.

Torque response
ACT ONE provides better torque response with no whip motion.

The above data was obtained by company standardized test, which may differ from industry standardized tests. The data does not prove that all devices have exactly the same performance with the samples used for these tests.
