Yankauer Suction Tube compl. w/handle 4 tubes

Clinical Application

This rigid Yankauer suction assembly is intended for broad-area fluid and secretion removal in operative and procedural settings. The bulbous Yankauer tip clears saliva, blood, and soft debris from the oral cavity, pharynx and superficial surgical fields without concentrating suction at a single point, making it useful during airway management, head and neck procedures, ENT cases, dental procedures and routine intraoperative suctioning.

Design & Configuration

The instrument is supplied as a complete assembly with a detachable handle and four tubes. The traditional Yankauer geometry — a firm, slightly curved shaft terminating in a rounded bulbous tip with a large lateral opening — provides effective bulk evacuation of fluids while limiting inadvertent mucosal aspiration. The handle offers a secure grip and simplifies manipulation in confined spaces; providing multiple tubes in the set improves turnover for sterilization or enables having spare assemblies available in multi-procedure schedules.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Yankauer suction tube
• Configuration: Complete with handle; set includes 4 tubes
• Tip: Rigid bulbous Yankauer suction tip for broad-area aspiration
• Typical use: Oral/pharyngeal and superficial surgical field suctioning
• Material: Surgical-grade stainless steel

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel to resist corrosion and withstand standard sterilization processes. The rigid shaft maintains lumen patency under vacuum to minimize collapse during high-flow suctioning. Reusable design supports instrument reprocessing workflows in hospitals and outpatient surgical centers.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
