McCulloch-type suction tube 5 French angled working length 125mm, thumb plate with cutoff hole

Controlled suction for focused surgical access

The McCulloch-type suction tube is a 5 French angled suction instrument designed to remove fluid from the operative field while supporting controlled handling through its thumb plate with cutoff hole. Its 125 mm working length provides practical reach for focused access in General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, while the angled form can help position the tip around the working area without unnecessary repositioning. The thumb control allows the operator to manage suction at the instrument, supporting responsive fluid management during procedures where a clear field and careful instrument handling are important.

Use Cases

• Use for controlled suction of fluid from the operative field during General Surgery procedures.
• Support focused fluid removal in Neurosurgery workflows where a 5Fr suction tube and angled tip are appropriate.
• Use the angled configuration to approach the working area from a practical orientation within the incision or exposure.
• Adjust suction directly through the thumb plate with cutoff hole during active instrument handling.
• Use the 125mm length when additional reach is useful within the surgical field.
