Barnes suction tube 4 French angled working length 50mm, thumb plate with cutoff hole

Controlled suction access for focused surgical handling

The Barnes suction tube is a 4 French angled suction instrument designed to assist with fluid removal during ENT and General Surgery procedures. Its 50mm working length provides a compact reach for focused access, while the angled shape can support positioning around the operative field. A thumb plate with cutoff hole allows the user to interrupt suction flow during handling, helping integrate suction control into the procedure without changing instruments. Suitable for task-oriented suction workflows, this tube combines a narrow profile with practical manual control for situations where access and responsive handling are important.

Use Cases

• Support focused suction tasks in ENT procedures where a compact, angled tube can assist access around the operative field.
• Use during General Surgery workflows for removing fluids while maintaining a controlled instrument position.
• Apply the thumb plate with cutoff hole to interrupt suction flow during repositioning or tissue-adjacent handling.
• Use the 50mm working length when a short, defined reach is appropriate for localized suction tasks.
