TECASON P MT XRO red combines the excellent property profile of PPSU with a radio opacifier. This additive allows for an additional option to the standard line of coloured PPSU materials for orthopedic sizing trials and other medical devices, and allows for clear visibility of the machined component on fluoroscopy and x-ray. TECASON P MT XRO is available in multiple colours and dimensions. For more details see TECASON P MT XRO black.
