Coating

Lubricity Testing

Accompanying our line of dip coaters is the DL1000 Durability & Lubricity Test System. The DL1000 provides accurate, reliable measurement of the durability & lubricity of medical coatings on catheters and guidewires.

What is the DL1000?

The DL1000 is a system typically used for quality control in production, or for R&D teams, to evaluate the durability and lubricity of coated devices. It provides accurate, reliable measurement of the durability and lubricity for a variety of life science devices. Engineered with robust components and controls, the DL1000 maximizes productivity and provides flexible, easy-to-use features for lab and production applications.

Designed for testing coated medical devices.

PAR’s durability and lubricity testers are perfectly suited for testing catheters and guidewires. After testing, the resulting values are plotted in real-time. And the raw data is both stored in compliance with CFR 21 Part 11 and used to generate a comprehensive test report.
