Description
MIC-KEY* Gastrostomy Feeding Tube, Low-Profile - 16 Fr, 1.7 cm, 2120-16-1.7 is a skin-level "button" G-tube. The 16 Fr diameter is the most common size for adults, and the 1.7 cm length is a specific "mid-range" size. It is often used when a 1.5 cm tube is slightly too tight, but a 2.0 cm tube allows for too much movement.

Key Features
Discreet Low-Profile: Designed to sit flush against the skin, making it less noticeable under clothing and reducing the risk of accidental dislodgment.
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A one-way valve located at the top of the tube that prevents stomach acid or formula from leaking out when the extension set is disconnected.
Tapered Distal Tip: Shaped to allow for a smooth and comfortable insertion into an established stoma tract.
Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in marker that shows up clearly on X-rays, ensuring medical staff can verify the tube is seated correctly in the stomach.
Recessed Tip: When the balloon is inflated to the 5 mL volume, the distal tip is tucked away to prevent the silicone from rubbing against the stomach lining.
