Asahi Fielder XT-R Guide Wire 0.014/0.010 x 190 cm APW14R005S
The Asahi Fielder XT‑A/XT‑R PTCA guide wire is a 0.36 mm (0.014″) hydrophilic, polymer‑jacketed coronary guide wire. Available in 190 cm and 300 cm lengths, it’s used for chronic total occlusions and complex lesion crossing. The XT‑A version has 1.0 gf tip load, while the XT‑R offers 0.6 gf for enhanced flexibility.
These wires feature a tapered, small-diameter straight tip designed for crossing occluded or tortuous coronary vessels with precision. The polymer jacket and hydrophilic coating reduce friction, improving trackability and torquability in challenging anatomy. The 16 cm radiopaque coil section ensures clear visualization under fluoroscopy. Clinicians rely on the XT‑A for stump-less CTO penetration and XT‑R for meticulous channel tracking in subtotal occlusions
