Merz suction tube 6" 7 French angled shaft straight atraumatic tip working length 80mm

Controlled Suction for Focused Operative Access

The Merz suction tube is a surgical suction instrument intended to remove fluids and maintain a clearer working area during operative tasks. Its 7 French format, angled shaft, and 80 mm working length support controlled access where reach and directional handling matter. The straight atraumatic tip is designed to help the user position the tube with attention to tissue contact, while the compact 6-inch size supports close instrument control. Suitable for specialty-neutral use across General Surgery and Neurosurgery, it can fit routine suction workflows in which a focused, maneuverable tube is preferred for site access and fluid management.

Use Cases

• Removing pooled fluids from the operative field during general surgical procedures.
• Supporting controlled suction in neurosurgical workflows where careful instrument positioning is important.
• Using the angled shaft to approach areas that benefit from directional access.
• Applying the straight atraumatic tip for suction tasks requiring attentive handling near tissue.
• Integrating a compact suction tube into workflows that call for close control and an 80 mm working length.
