Surgical equipment
Handle grips
Styroflex®’s rubber-like mechanics and ability to bond to other polymers makes it well-suited to be used in over-moulding applications to improve the grip of various surgical devices.
Trocars, electro surgical pencils
For endoscopic surgery, the medical devices usually come with a plastic blade containing a hollow cylinder, that can be passed in and out of the patient’s insufflated body. Terlux® HD offers excellent transparency, chemical resistance, impact strength, stiffness and adherence to medical industry requirements.
Arthroscopes, endoscopes & microlaparoscopy
Styroflex® and Styrolux® can be used in a variety of flexible tubing applications. For those components that need high impact strength, Novodur® HD delivers superior performance for opaque based applications. Terlux® HD and Zylar® meet similar needs for transparent finished goods.
Retinal surgery cassettes
Terlux® and Zylar® products stand out for their balanced toughness-to-stiffness ratio and high optical clarity. The combination of properties and ease of processing makes these products an optimal choice for upscale and design-oriented healthcare applications.
