Description

he 2120-18-1.2 (also cataloged as 0120-18-1.2) is a "button" style G-tube. The 18 Fr diameter is the standard "large-bore" size, preferred for its high flow rates. The 1.2 cm length is a common shallow depth for lean adults or older children who require a wider tube for thicker nutritional needs.

Specifications

  • Brand: MIC-KEY* (Avanos Medical)

  • French Size (Diameter): 18 Fr

  • Stoma Length (Depth): 1.2 cm

  • Balloon Volume: 5 mL (Recommended fill with sterile water; maximum capacity 10 mL)

  • Material: Medical-grade, high-clarity silicone

  • HCPCS Code: B4088

  • Connector Type: SECUR-LOK* (Lock-and-key style)

Key Features

  • Large-Bore 18 Fr Lumen: The wider internal diameter is ideal for the delivery of blenderized diets and ensures that crushed medications can be administered with a significantly lower risk of clogging.

  • Low-Profile Design: Sits flush against the skin for a discreet appearance under clothing and reduces the risk of the tube being snagged during daily movement.

  • Internal Anti-Reflux Valve: A proximal valve that automatically closes when the extension set is disconnected, preventing gastric contents from leaking out.

  • Tapered Distal Tip: Designed for smooth, atraumatic insertion into an established stoma tract.

  • Radiopaque Stripe: A built-in marker that is visible under X-ray, allowing clinicians to confirm the tube is properly seated against the stomach wall.

  • 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.
