The 8100-26 is the product code for the Avanos MIC Jejunal (J) Feeding Tube* in a 26 French size.

Key Features
Large Internal Lumen: The 26 French diameter provides a wide channel that is ideal for administering thicker nutritional formulas or medications that might clog smaller 14 or 18 Fr tubes.
Customizable Length: The 60 cm distal segment is designed to be trimmed by the clinician during the placement procedure, ensuring the tip is positioned at the optimal depth for the patient’s anatomy.
Tungsten-Weighted Tip: The end of the tube is weighted to assist with initial placement and to prevent the tube from migrating back into the stomach (retrograde migration).
Radiopaque Stripe: A high-visibility stripe is embedded in the silicone to allow for quick and accurate position verification under X-ray or fluoroscopy.
SECUR-LOK External Bolster:* This retention ring holds the tube securely against the skin while its specialized design allows air to circulate around the stoma site to maintain skin integrity.
