Guide wire

A guide wire (1) comprises a wire body (10) having a first wire (2) disposed at a distal end thereof and a second wire (3) joined to a proximal end of said first wire (2) through a weld joint (14) and made of a material different from the material of said first wire (2). When a tensile test is condu...

More Information
Summary:A guide wire (1) comprises a wire body (10) having a first wire (2) disposed at a distal end thereof and a second wire (3) joined to a proximal end of said first wire (2) through a weld joint (14) and made of a material different from the material of said first wire (2). When a tensile test is conducted on a region of said wire body (10) including the weld joint (14), said region of the wire body (10) has, in a tensile load and elongation diagram, an elastic section extending substantially straight upwardly to the right and a yield section extending substantially horizontally or upwardly to the right from the elastic section. Further, said region of said wire body (10) has such characteristics that the region is fracturable at a fracture position other than the weld joint (14) under a load higher than a terminal end of the yield section.
