Description

From Acrostak

GRIPTM is a unique innovative high pressure NC balloon that has rows of focal knobs positioned across the the body of the balloon. The Focal knobs act as pressure points to treat difficult to crack plaque at the same time helping the balloon to grip, reducing the risk of slippage.
 

  • GRIPTM presents an immediate solution as an alternative to cutting or scoring balloon that historically have difficulty in tracking and delivering in challenging situations.
  • GRIPTM balloon's are often used in the treatment of intra-stent restenosis, ostial lesions, biafications and other heavily fibrotic or calcified lesions.
  • GRIPTM has a resistance to "dog boning" due to its unique super tough patented burst resistant balloon material.
  • You may choose to use the GRIPTM insead of a cutting or scoring balloon, or where a normal balloon fails to dilate the vessel to a satisfactory result.
