Salient Characteristics
1. Highest rated bursting pressure (RBP) that goes up to 19 ATM, and is the highest of any balloon in the non-fistula class
2. Smallest crossing profile
3. Entire balloon is coated, not just the catheter shaft. (unique to Fox)
4. Fastest inflate/deflate times. In some instances ý the time of other balloons. This fact becomes very important when you are performing long angioplasties of arterial lesions, where you do not want excess time of inflation and potential for thrombosis.
