Merz suction tube 8 5 French angled shaft angled up atraumatic tip working length 125mm

Controlled suction access for focused surgical workflows

The Merz suction tube is a surgical suction instrument designed to remove fluids and maintain a clearer working area during procedures. Its 5 French profile, angled shaft, and angled-up atraumatic tip support directed access in confined operative fields while helping the user position suction where needed. The 8-inch overall length and 125 mm working length provide useful reach for routine handling. Suitable for general surgery and neurosurgery applications, this suction tube supports practical fluid-management tasks without adding unnecessary bulk to the instrument setup.

Use Cases

• Direct suction toward pooled fluids during general surgery procedures.
• Support fluid-management tasks in neurosurgical operative fields where a narrow 5 French profile is useful.
• Use the angled shaft and angled-up tip to approach selected areas without relying on a straight instrument path.
• Position suction near the working site while maintaining practical reach from the handpiece.
• Incorporate into surgical instrument setups requiring a dedicated suction tube.
