This permanent mechanical lock ensures the band cannot migrate even under repeated catheter flexion through a 180° bend test mandrel. The platinum alloy (Pt-10%Ir available on request) provides \u0026gt;3,000 HU fluoroscopic contrast, making the band visible under standard interventional C-arm imaging at all angulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach band is placed under a stereo microscope at ≥10× magnification, crimped with a calibrated hex crimp tool to a programmed force, and inspected dimensionally with a calibrated optical comparator — all within M4D’s ISO Class 8 cleanroom, with QCBD QMS documentation at every step.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDevice Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eParameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePt (99.95%) or Pt-10%Ir alloy (specify at order)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFluoroscopic Contrast\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026gt;3,000 HU under standard C-arm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCrimp Retention\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTensile pull-off per MTP-007, force recorded per lot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWall Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.002–0.004 in. standard range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShaft OD Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.025 in. – 0.105 in.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBend Test\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180° mandrel, post-crimp, 0 migration pass criteria\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEtO Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes — outgassing protocol per ISO 11135\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLot Traceability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull COA + crimp force log + optical inspection record\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegulatory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISO 13485:2016, FDA Registered, QCBD QMS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum order: 10 units.\u003c\/strong\u003e Width, ID\/OD, and alloy customization available per drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M4D LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50370281570471,"sku":null,"price":24.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/8842\/8199\/files\/image_12e49feb-373e-4cc2-8510-a1a259c8a806.png?v=1779876226","url":"https:\/\/m4dally.com\/products\/platinum-full-ring-radiopaque-marker-band-permanent-crimp-fixed-distal-tip-localization","provider":"M4D LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
