Ferguson-Frazier suction tube 8 6 French angled working length 150mm, thumb plate with cutoff hole

Controlled Suction for Focused Surgical Access

The Ferguson-Frazier suction tube is a surgical suction instrument used to remove fluids and maintain a clearer operative field during procedures. Its 8-inch angled design and 150 mm working length support access where a straight tube may be less convenient, while the 6 French size suits more focused suction tasks. A thumb plate with a cutoff hole provides a practical way to control suction during handling, helping the operator respond to changing conditions without putting down the instrument. Suitable for workflow contexts including ENT and General Surgery, this tube combines compact access, manual control, and a familiar suction-tube format.

Use Cases

• Use for focused fluid removal during ENT procedures where an angled approach can support access around the operative area.
• Support suction tasks in General Surgery while maintaining a controlled hand position through the thumb plate and cutoff hole.
• Use the 150 mm working length to reach the operative field without relying on an extended tube.
• Apply for routine surgical suction duties requiring a narrow 6 French tube format.
• Use the angled working end to help position the tube in access-limited areas while preserving practical instrument handling.
