Guide Wire Data Center 4+

The Guide Wire Data Center is a robust source for coronary and peripheral guide wire technical attributes including tip load and device support. This app includes both Abbott and non-Abbott wires.


There are many guide wires to explore, both Abbott and competitive. You can explore attributes about a guide wire including material, cover, distal coating, tip load, radiopacity, tip diameter, tip style, penetration power and device support level.

On each wire page you can also find similar wires to help you choose wires for comparison.

You can select up to 8 wires for side-by-side comparison of technical attributes. Graphs are generated for Tip Loads, Device Support Levels, and Penetration Power (if applicable).

You can generate a PDF of the comparison charts to send to your customer. Whether your customer is interested in how their favorite competitive guide wire compares to a similar Abbott guide wire or wants to see how their favorite Abbott guide wire compares to a new competitive wire, you can use this tool to provide important information to drive Abbott wire selection.
