Additional product details

• 18Fr.
• With an 18 French outer diameter, it provides a balance between lumen size (for flow) and patient comfort, making it suited for many adult patients. Its construction from biocompatible silicone helps reduce tissue irritation and offers flexibility, which aids patient tolerance during movements and extended use.
• A radiopaque stripe runs longitudinally, which allows caregivers or physicians to confirm proper tube placement via imaging (e.g. X‑ray). The internal retention silicone balloon holds the tube securely in the stomach, and an external QUAD‑LOK ring helps stabilize the external section, reducing migration or accidental dislodgment.
• Because the 0112‑18 has a catheter tip (non‑ENFit) connector, it is compatible with traditional feeding sets (though users should verify connector compatibility in their facility). The presence of a medication port lets caregivers deliver medications more conveniently without disconnecting the primary feeding lumen. The tube arrives sterile (gamma sterilized) and is intended for single use, which helps maintain safety and reduce infection risk. In practice, clinicians choose this tube when a robust, medium‑sized gastrostomy tube is needed for sustained enteral support with medication flexibility and secure retention.
