The permanent implantable VKU 10C

is used as a lead repair kit. It extends an implanted unipolar lead, which connector has to be removed, to a pacemaker. The VKU incorporates an IS-1 connector on one end and the universal coupler with self sealing plastic screws on the other end. The exceptionally constructed coupler warrants a secure mechanical and correspondingly an excellent electrical contact between the conductor of the lead and the coupler. The clear coupler material facilitates the visual inspection of the splice.
