Description

Technical Specifications

  • French Size: 14 Fr (Outer diameter)

  • Stoma Length: 5.0 cm (Long shaft length)

  • Balloon Fill Volume: 3 mL (Recommended) to 5 mL (Maximum)

  • Material: 100% Medical-grade silicone

  • Connection: SECUR-LOK* (Non-ENFit)


Key Features

  • Extended Shaft Length: Specifically designed for patients where a standard length (1.5 cm – 3.0 cm) would be too short. The 5.0 cm length prevents the external base from being pulled too tight against the skin, which can cause "buried bumper syndrome."

  • Low-Profile Design: Despite the long internal shaft, the external "button" remains flush against the skin once seated, offering a discreet profile under clothing compared to standard-length tubes.

  • Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A built-in valve at the proximal end prevents the backflow of gastric contents when the extension set is disconnected.

  • SECUR-LOK* Locking System: Ensures that extension sets are securely connected with a simple "plug and turn" motion, minimizing the risk of accidental disconnection during feeds.

  • Tapered and Recessed Tip: The distal tip is tapered for easier insertion. When the balloon is inflated, the tip is recessed into the silicone "cushion" to prevent the plastic from irritating the stomach wall.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in line that is clearly visible under X-ray, providing a non-invasive way for medical professionals to confirm proper placement.
