The scope body enters the patient through the insertion tube, instruments pass through the Biopsy Channel, and the articulating section is wrapped by the Bending Rubber — three items, each built to your finished-scope assembly drawing.
The part of the scope that enters the body. Built as jacket, braid and liner, with the port flared smooth so head assembly goes easily.
The passage forceps, snares and haemostasis tools travel through. A PTFE inner layer keeps friction low; an ePTFE outer layer takes repeated flexing and cleaning.
The serpentine component that wraps an endoscope's bending section. It holds shape through curved paths, reducing twisting and breakage and making articulation stable.
The three parts do not overlap. Which section you are building tells you which item you need.
Endoscope components usually arrive bundled with reinforced tubing and secondary processing.
The published range is OD 0.8 – 6.8 mm and ID 0.5 – 6.0 mm. Anything outside that is agreed from your drawing.
TPU, PA12 and PEBAX are available, and durometer can be stepped along the length so the distal end is softer.
The PTFE inner layer lowers instrument friction and the ePTFE outer layer takes repeated flexing and cleaning. One material rarely does both well.
Down to a 0.1 mm wall. The serpentine profile holds its shape even that thin.
Bending rubber stays elastic to −35 °C, so cold storage or air transport is not an issue.
Yes. Send an assembly drawing and we quote insertion tube, biopsy channel and bending rubber as one package.
Dimensions, material, application. Those three are enough to start. A drawing makes it faster. We reply with TDS, MSDS and MOQ together.
