Silicone rubber coated
with hydrophilic lubrication

Although silicone rubber is used in the ST-SB1, a hydrophilic lubrication coating inside of the tube lining ensures better lubrication between the scope and overtube, assisting smooth, easy insertion into the deep part of the small intestine.

Eliminating risks associated
with latex allergies

A latex-free design has been achieved by using silicone rubber, a substance that rarely causes allergies, throughout the ST-SB1.

Radiopaque material to enable position
confirmation under fluoroscopy

Radiopaque material is used in the distal end of the ST-SB1 to allow confirmation of the tube tip under fluoroscopy, further enhancing insertion performance into the deep part of the small intestine.
