ASAHI Veloute®
Interventional radiology microcatheter — 1.7/2.8 Fr · Interventional Radiology

ASAHI Veloute®Product Code (REF): VEL150-16AS

ASAHI Veloute® is a selective microcatheter for interventional radiology whose slogan — more selective, more effective — reflects its focus on distal vessel selectivity. The distal shaft measures 0.58 mm (1.7 Fr) with a 0.43 mm (0.017 in) lumen, stepping up to 0.94 mm (2.8 Fr) proximally with a 0.59 mm (0.023 in) lumen, and accepts guidewires up to 0.41 mm (0.016 in) — it was developed for compatibility with the ASAHI Meister 16 wire. Proprietary composite braiding of two wire thicknesses gives the shaft its manoeuvrability, and the gradual taper design provides high tactile feedback while keeping manual contrast injection smooth. Straight and angled tips are offered in 105, 125 and 150 cm usable lengths with 65 cm (100 cm on the 150 cm version) of hydrophilic coating; rated to 6,895 kPa (1,000 psi).

This page documents catalog code (REF) VEL150-16AS, one of 12 available configurations of the ASAHI Veloute®. See the full ASAHI Veloute® overview for every configuration.
