Catheter Metal Male 6 Fr.

Clinical Application

This rigid metal male catheter in 6 Fr is intended for controlled urethral access in male patients where a small-caliber, durable lumen is required. Typical uses include pediatric or narrow-caliber catheterization, diagnostic urine sampling, temporary bladder drainage during select urologic procedures, and instrument exchange where a kink-resistant metal shaft is preferred over flexible polymer catheters.

Design & Configuration

The single-piece metal tubular design provides a stable, kink-resistant lumen and improved torque transfer during insertion and positioning. The rigid geometry maintains consistent patency in small diameters such as 6 Fr, easing passage through tight strictures or narrow urethral anatomy. A smooth, polished surface minimizes mucosal friction and facilitates atraumatic insertion and thorough cleaning between uses.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Male urethral catheter
• Material: Metal construction
• Size: 6 Fr
• Configuration: Rigid tubular catheter designed for narrow-caliber access
• Typical use: Pediatric/narrow-caliber catheterization, diagnostic sampling, temporary bladder drainage in select procedures
