Ferguson-Frazier suction tube 6 1/4" 4 French, strongly angled working length 100mm, thumb plate with cutoff hole

Angled suction access with practical thumb control

The Ferguson-Frazier suction tube is a surgical suction instrument used to remove fluids and maintain a clearer operative field during ENT and General Surgery procedures. Its strongly angled profile and 100 mm working length support access where a straight tube may be less convenient, while the 4 French size provides a compact suction pathway for precise handling. A thumb plate with cutoff hole places suction interruption within the user’s grip, helping coordinate aspiration with instrument positioning. The 6 1/4-inch overall length offers practical reach for routine operative handling without adding unnecessary bulk to the instrument.

Use Cases

• Aspirating fluids from the operative field during ENT procedures where angled access is useful.
• Supporting suction tasks in General Surgery while the operator works around adjacent instruments or anatomy.
• Using the strongly angled working end to approach access points that are less convenient for a straight suction tube.
• Applying thumb control through the cutoff hole to interrupt suction during repositioning or field assessment.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the suction tube promptly after use according to facility procedures and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the tube, strongly angled section, opening, and thumb plate for visible residue, blockage, or damage before handling or reuse.
• Handle the angled working section carefully to preserve its intended shape and maintain clear suction passage.
• Store the instrument in a clean, protected location where the tube and thumb plate will not be bent or damaged.
