Biopsy Channel

The passage through which biopsy, haemostasis and foreign-body retrieval instruments travel into the body via the endoscope channel. Of all endoscope parts, this is where friction and durability are felt most directly in the hand.

Characteristics

Properties
Linstant published data
A PTFE inner layer — low friction, so forceps and instruments pass smoothly.
An ePTFE outer layer — the expanded porous structure gives flexibility while holding the channel's shape.
Used as the instrument passagefor biopsy, haemostasis and foreign-body retrieval.
Can be supplied as an assembly together with the endoscope insertion tube.
Biopsy channel — coil tube and PTFE liner
Coil reinforcement and PTFE inner layer — two-layer build

Bore, length and layer structure are built to drawing. In the same category, see the Endoscope Insertion Tube and Viton Bending Rubber as well.

FAQ

FAQ

How low is the bore friction of the biopsy channel tubing?

The bore is extruded low-friction for forceps and instrument passage. If you have a friction coefficient or passage test condition, we build it into the spec.

Can I specify a kink-free bend radius?

Yes. Tell us the minimum bending radius (e.g. 10R) that must stay kink-free and we match wall and material.

Can I get the MSDS · TDS · biocompatibility report for Biopsy Channel?

Yes. TDS · MSDS come with every specification reply. ISO 10993 biocompatibility data varies by grade and lot, so we confirm it with the factory (Linstant) and reply.

What about samples, MOQ and lead time for Biopsy Channel?

Standard sizes start with small sample lots. MOQ and lead time depend on dimensions, material and secondary processing — send OD · ID · wall · tolerance · length · quantity and we reply within one business day.
