<p>A kink resistant tubing (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90) used in intravenous catheters. The kink resistant tube is composed of a mandrel (72) with a thin coating of encapsulating material (74) upon which a coil (54) is wrapped. The coil wrap encapsulating material is then covered with encapsulating material (74) to form a kink resistant reinforced tubing (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 70, 80, 90). The mandrel (72) is extracted from the tubing (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90). The tubing (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90) can be used in medical applications or where a thin, non-collapsible small strong tubing is needed.</p> |
