The Asahi Chikai Guidewire (REF WAIN-CKI-008-200) is a micro-diameter neurovascular guidewire engineered to support navigation of tortuous distal intracranial anatomy. With a 0.008 in distal segment tapering to a 0.010 in proximal body and a 200 cm working length, it is designed to deliver predictable torque response and smooth microcatheter tracking during selective and super-selective access procedures.
Key Features
Dual-diameter construction: 0.008 in distal / 0.010 in proximal for distal reach with proximal pushability.
200 cm usable length suitable for exchange and over-the-wire microcatheter techniques.
Straight tip configuration allowing operator shaping per procedural preference.
Hydrophilic polymer coating on the distal segment to reduce friction in tortuous vessels.
Core-to-tip design concept intended to provide 1:1 torque transmission.
Radiopaque distal segment to aid fluoroscopic visualization.
Clinical Applications
Selective and super-selective navigation of distal intracranial vasculature.
Support and exchange for compatible neurovascular microcatheters.
Access in tortuous cerebrovascular anatomy where a low-profile wire is indicated.
Use as an adjunct in diagnostic and interventional neurovascular procedures as determined by the treating physician.
