The Story Is in the DesignFlexibility to get you there. Strength to keep you there.
The Racer RX renal stent system features an exclusive modularstent design that balances strength with predeployment flexibilityand conformability to the vessel wall. The Racer RX stent followsthe legacy of the Racer stent, the first cobalt chromiumstent launched for renal applications.
Advanced cobalt chromium alloy:• High radial strength with thin struts and a lower profile.• Low recoil for enhanced lumen patency and precise deployment.• Immediate postprocedure MR imaging, under appropriate conditions.
Exclusive modular stent design:• Superb predeployment flexibility, requiring minimal force to track the stent into the lesion.• Small cell area and optimal fusion patterns for exceptional lesion coverage and to help minimize tissue prolapse.
Rapid-exchange delivery system:• Low crossing profile and true 0.014-in. guidewire compatibility for easy trackability.• Optimal balloon-stent interface for minimal balloon overhang and added security during delivery.
Why compromise strength for flexibility—or flexibility for strength—when you don’t need to?
The Proof Is in the Results
The Racer RX renal stent system’s exclusivedesign starts with an advanced
cobaltchromium alloy.
Individual rings created from the cobalt chromium alloy are formed into
sinusoidal elements.
The elements are laser-fused usingfusion patterns specifically designed toprovide an optimal balance of strength
and flexibility for each stent length.†
Stents are electropolished to create a smooth, edgeless finish.
Our patented Secure Technology stent retention system features
distal and proximal pillows that offer added security during delivery.
Superb predeployment flexibility for excellent deliverability
Flexibility (Predeployment Rigidity)*
Superior postdeployment stent conformability to help keep vessel’s native shape
