Description

Key Features

  • Versatile 5-in-1 Design: The connector is straight and features stepped ends designed to adapt to five different sizes of medical tubing. This eliminates the need for multiple, specific connectors.

  • Broad Tubing Compatibility: It is designed to connect two tubes of the same size or any combination of five sizes, typically ranging from 5 mm to 11 mm internal diameter (ID), which corresponds to:

    • $3/16^{\prime\prime}$

    • $1/4^{\prime\prime}$

    • $5/16^{\prime\prime}$

    • $3/8^{\prime\prime}$

    • $7/16^{\prime\prime}$

  • Material and Durability: It is made from tough, shatterproof polypropylene.

  • Visual Monitoring: The clear polypropylene material permits visual monitoring of any fluids passing through the connector.

  • Sterility: The product (Catalog No. 501) is typically supplied sterile and individually packaged in plasti-packs to ensure hygiene and safety. A non-sterile version (Catalog No. 511) may also be available.

  • Latex-Free: The connector is manufactured to be latex-free.

  • Disposable: It is a single-use disposable product, which helps reduce the risk of cross-contamination and infection.
