Catheter Metal Male 20 Fr.

Clinical Application

This rigid metal male catheter is intended for adult urologic use where a durable, kink‑resistant lumen is required. Common procedural applications include intraoperative urinary drainage, bladder irrigation and clot evacuation, contrast or medication instillation, and use as an accessory during diagnostic or interventional urology cases. The 20 Fr size corresponds to standard adult male sizing and is chosen when a larger lumen is needed for effective lavage or passage of debris.

Design & Configuration

The straight, rigid configuration provides direct tactile feedback and controlled insertion, which can be advantageous in the operating room or during instrument exchanges. Metal construction resists kinking under irrigation flow and maintains lumen patency for high-volume drainage. A smooth polished surface reduces insertion friction and facilitates atraumatic passage when used with appropriate lubrication and technique.
