Fukushima Suction Tube Straight 12 Fr 8.8 cm (3.5)

Compact Straight Suction for Controlled Surgical Access

The Fukushima teardrop suction tube is a straight suction instrument intended to remove fluids from the operative field during surgical tasks. Its short 5 3/4-inch format and 88mm working length support close, controlled handling where a compact reach is preferred. The 12 French suction passage provides a defined instrument size for routine setup and selection, while the orange finish supports quick visual identification on the sterile field. Suitable for suction workflows in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, this tube offers a straightforward configuration for maintaining a clear working area without adding unnecessary length to the instrument.
