Merz suction tube 6" 12 French angled shaft straight atraumatic tip working length 80mm

Controlled Suction Access for Surgical Workflows

The Merz suction tube is a 6-inch surgical suction instrument designed to help remove fluids and maintain a clearer working area during procedures. Its 12 French size, angled shaft, and 80 mm working length support directed access where controlled positioning is important. The straight atraumatic tip is suited to careful handling around the operative field, while the angled profile can help the user approach the intended area without relying solely on a straight-line path. This specialty-neutral design may support suction tasks across ENT, General Surgery, and Neurosurgery workflows, subject to facility technique and procedural requirements.

Use Cases

• Support fluid removal and field management during ENT procedures requiring a compact, angled suction instrument.
• Provide directed suction access during General Surgery workflows where the operative area benefits from controlled instrument positioning.
• Assist with suction tasks in Neurosurgery procedures where careful handling and access around the surgical field are important.
• Use the 80 mm working length to reach the intended area while maintaining a practical hand position outside the immediate field.
• Apply the straight atraumatic tip for deliberate contact and fluid removal as appropriate to the procedure and facility technique.
