Pinnacle TIF Tip

Specifications

Closer Look


Laboratory tests show that inserting the Pinnacle TIF Tip requires up to 24% less force* than competitor sheaths.
Performs well in simulated difficult access sites and tissue Retains smooth transitions from guidewire-to-dilator and from dilator-to-sheath May aid in the reduction of vessel damage and trauma at the access site that can lead to major complications
Seamless dilator-to-sheath transition for superior vascular access
	New Premium Pinnacle TIF Tip Transition from guidewire-to-dilator and dilator-to sheath is extremely smooth Bends and flexes without gapping or kinking Minimizes the possibility of damaging tissue upon sheath entry, advancement or removal. May lead to smoother, easier vascular access even through difficult access sites
	Competitor Sheaths Other competitor sheaths can form a gap between the sheath and dilator Sharp edge can catch on tissue or damage artery walls
Less penetration force means better sheath integrity
	Pinnacle TIF Tip provides access to vessel with less pressure, retaining a smooth dilator-to-sheath transition with no deformation.*
	Competitor sheaths may buckle or "accordion" due to force needed for insertion as illustrated here during bench top testing.*
Excellent flexibility for maximum kink resistance
	Pinnacle TIF Tip flexes beyond 45-degree angle without kinking or collapsing.*
	Competitor's sheath kinked at 45-degree angle during bench top testing.*
Pinnacle TIF Tip is less likely to deform, resulting in easier, safer insertion
	Pinnacle TIF Tip sheath advances over dilator with no gaps or crimps.*†
	Competitor sheaths can deform during insertion, forming a sharp crimp*†
