NiTi #1-DFT®
With NiTi #1-DFT® you combine the best of both worlds. Our DFT® constructions allow the material to maintain the superelastic characteristics of Nitinol when combined with any one of our core materials.
By creating a Nitinol composite you have the ability to increase its radiopacity, conductivity, or resiliency depending on the core material that is used. One of the primary benefits of NiTi-DFT® is that is can be used to achieve enhanced visibility under X-ray fluoroscopy.
