Key Features

  • High-Flow 20 Fr Diameter: The larger internal lumen of the 20 Fr tube is ideal for delivering thicker, fiber-enriched, or "blenderized" formulas. It is significantly more resistant to clogging from medication residue compared to smaller sizes.

  • Low-Profile "Button" Design: Sits flush against the skin, offering a discreet appearance under clothing. This design is preferred by active adults as it minimizes the risk of the tube being accidentally snagged or displaced.

  • Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A proximal valve prevents the "backflow" of stomach contents or formula when the extension set is disconnected, keeping the patient's skin and clothing clean.

  • Recessed Distal Tip: When the balloon is inflated to the recommended volume, the plastic distal tip sits inside the balloon. This prevents the tip from irritating the sensitive stomach lining (gastric mucosa).

  • Medical-Grade Silicone: High-clarity, biocompatible silicone ensures the tube remains soft and flexible, which is critical for patient comfort during long-term use.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: Features a high-visibility line for quick verification of the tube's position via X-ray or fluoroscopy.
