Based on shrink ratio, the 1.3:1 shrink ratio segment is projected to register the second-highest market share during the forecast period. FEP heat shrink medical tubing with 1.3:1 shrink ratio is widely utilized to encapsulate medical devices and provide insulation for electrical components across various environments. These tubes safeguard the delicate integrity and functionality of medical instruments while offering effective protection for electrical devices. Particularly valued for applications require a smooth and even substrate, such as encapsulating catheters or surgical tools, they ensure a seamless and reliable surface. However, they may not be suitable for irregular surfaces, where tubing with a higher shrink ratio is preferred to ensure proper encapsulation and sealing. Despite this limitation, FEP heat shrink medical tubing with a 1.3:1 shrink ratio remains a dependable option for applications requiring uniformity and consistent performance.
Based on application, the surgical and vascular instruments application is projected to register the second highest market share during the forecast period. FEP heat shrink medical tubing is extensively applied in various surgical and vascular instruments due to its unique attributes tailored to meet the specific needs of these medical devices. In catheters and guidewires, it acts as a protective outer layer, enhancing device durability and providing insulation while ensuring smooth movement through the vasculature to minimize tissue damage risk. In endoscopic instruments, FEP tubing serves in sheaths, channels, and covers, offering biocompatibility, chemical resistance, and transparency for visualization during procedures. Crucially, in vascular closure devices, it ensures secure seals at puncture sites to prevent bleeding or hematoma formation. In stents and stent delivery systems manufacturing, FEP tubing acts as a protective covering, enabling smooth delivery and deployment while maintaining biocompatibility for prolonged implantation. FEP heat shrink tubing also contributes to providing ergonomic handles and grips for surgical instruments, ensuring surgeons' comfort and secure grip during procedures. FEP heat shrink medical tubing significantly enhances device performance, durability, and safety in surgical and vascular interventions.
