Description
The 2120-16-2.0 (also cataloged as 0120-16-2.0) is a skin-level "button" G-tube. The 16 Fr diameter is the preferred choice for most adult enteral feeding programs, and the 2.0 cm length fits the average abdominal wall thickness for the majority of adult users.

Key Features
Standard Adult Size: The combination of 16 Fr and 2.0 cm is often the "first choice" for adult replacements due to its high compatibility with standard formulas and average fit.
Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin to minimize visibility and reduce the risk of the tube being snagged on belts or clothing.
Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A one-way valve at the top prevents stomach contents from leaking out when the extension set is disconnected.
Tapered Distal Tip: Designed for smooth, atraumatic insertion into an established stoma tract.
Radiopaque Stripe: Included for radiographic (X-ray) visualization to confirm correct tube position within the stomach.
Recessed Tip: When the balloon is inflated to the 5 mL volume, the distal tip is shielded by the balloon to prevent internal gastric irritation.
