Frazier suction tube 8 1/2" 6 French angled working length 140mm, thumb plate with slotted cutoff hole

Directed Suction with Practical Thumb Control

The Frazier suction tube is a slender surgical suction instrument intended to remove fluids from the operative field. Its 6 French, angled profile and 140 mm working length support deliberate placement where a compact, directed tube is useful, while the 8 1/2-inch overall length provides practical handling reach. A thumb plate with a slotted cutoff hole allows the user to modulate suction by covering or releasing the opening during the task. For General Surgery and Neurosurgery workflows, this configuration can support controlled fluid evacuation while helping the operator maintain attention on the field and instrument position.

Use Cases

• Support fluid evacuation during General Surgery procedures requiring a compact, angled suction tube.
• Use in Neurosurgery workflows where directed placement and a 140 mm working length are appropriate to the operative task.
• Position the angled tip for access to the intended area while maintaining practical hand control.
• Cover or release the slotted cutoff hole at the thumb plate to adjust suction during handling.

Care & Handling

• Clean the tube promptly after use according to facility procedures and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the angled tube, working end, lumen, thumb plate, and slotted cutoff hole for residue, obstruction, or damage before reuse.
• Handle the tube carefully to preserve its angled configuration and prevent bending or surface damage.
• Store clean and dry in a manner that protects the tube and thumb plate from impact or deformation.
