[0002] In the field of medical composite tubing, high performance requirements are placed on composite tubing, such as torsional rigidity, flexibility, and biocompatibility. The outer diameter of the entire composite tubing must be as small as possible to allow for smoother passage through human tissue, while the inner diameter must be as large as possible to accommodate larger instruments. To meet these requirements, the outer sheath of the composite tubing is typically required to be very thin, using a very small amount of polymer material.
