High Pressure Braided Tubing
We’re a leading full-service manufacturer of high pressure braided tubing (HPBT) for vascular balloon inflation, contrast injection, vacuum procedures, and other interventional needs.
Spectrum is a leading full-service manufacturer of high pressure braided tubing (HPBT). Our dedicated HPBT extrusion and braiding equipment allows us to embed with the highest precision nylon monofilament into transparent polyurethane tubing, increasing its strength, functionality, and flexibility.
HPBT tubing can be produced with single or multiple durometers along the shaft. The braid pattern can be varied to change the stiffness of the shaft along its length. Medical customers typically employ braided construction where the application requires high pressure resistance or requires navigation through small and tortuous anatomies, such as blood vessels in the heart or brain.
A variety of lengths and dimensions for HPBT are available (see below). Made from polyurethane with braided nylon monofilament, our HPBT is available as cut lengths.

Test and Analytical Capabilities
Because of its superb flexibility and pressure resistance, HPBT is the first choice for an increasing number of procedures, including minimally invasive operations. HPBT is often also utilized for various applications including high pressure transmission of contrast media into the vascular system.
We value the experience and know-how of our client partners.
The first step in the design of the HPBT is fully understanding the clinical requirements. Experienced extrusion and catheter engineers then collaborate with the client’s product development team.
Important factors to consider during product development include:
HPBT can also be customized to match the exacting requirements of highly specialized projects. Our customized solutions can be manufactured to precise tolerances, at high or low production volumes.
