Abstract

The guide wire serves in particular for the percutaneous introduction of a balloon dilation catheter into a blood vessel and has a flexible coil (2) which surrounds a likewise flexible shaft (3) and is produced from at least two coil springs (4, 5), which are rotated together at a connection location (8) over a plurality of turns (4a, 5a) and are soldered to one another. For the purpose of connection, at the end (4b, 5b) to be connected, the two coil springs (4, 5) are each slid onto a centring mould (7), rotated together and soldered. The centring mould (7) is then removed again. The connection location (8) is tubular and internally hollow, so that the flexible shaft (3) can be inserted subsequently.
