Katheter
Ein Stichpunkt in der technischen Beschreibung eines Ballonkatheters:
Der Katheterschaft aus Edelstahl bietet eine gute Schubfestigkeit.
Ist hier Schubfestigkeit = shear strength/shear resistance gemeint oder eher, dass man den Ballon in dem festen Material gut nach vorne schieben kann? Falls das Leztere, wie sage ich das elegant auf Englisch?

I suspect it is the former, since shear strength (in my reference: tensile strength) is an important catheter shaft quality.
