Skiver

The CT Skiver is a customized tool that cuts between the catheter tubing and applied heat shrink layers and separates them, removing the heat shrink material. These units are low cost, small, and allow the operator to perform this function anywhere. Each unit is designed to fit the catheter so as not to scratch the surface. Our team of engineers takes the finished OD of the catheter you provide and calculates the tolerance and space required to provide you with a repeatable product.
