Summary:An apparatus and method of manufacture includes a helical wire coil and a core wire assembly. The core wire assembly includes a core wire and a sleeve. The core wire extends through the helical wire coil and is formed from a first material that is non-extensible. The sleeve has a longitudinal bore. The core wire is disposed within the longitudinal bore of the sleeve. The core wire is secured within the sleeve. The sleeve is formed from a second material. The second material of the sleeve is different than the first material of the core wire. The sleeve is attached to the distal wire coil such that core wire inhibits longitudinal elongation of the proximal and distal wire coils along the longitudinal coil axis.
