Medtronic 1036162 Activent Silicone Tympanostomy Vent Tube 1.14 mm Inner Diameter - New

Medtronic 1036162 Activent Ventilation Tube | 1.14 mm Inner Diameter | 2.6 mm Flange Diameter | Microgel Hydrogel Coated Silicone | New

Expiration: August 5, 2027

The Medtronic 1036162 Activent® Tympanostomy Ventilation Tube is a precision-engineered micro-fluidic passage component designed for fluid equalization, pressure relief modeling, surface energy evaluations, and benchtop micro-channel testing. Manufactured from high-grade silicone treated with Medtronic's proprietary Activent® Microgel® polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel coating, this component provides significantly reduced surface tension and ultra-low microbial/bacterial adherence during fluid displacement. Featuring a 1.14 mm inner lumen diameter and a dual-flange design (2.6 mm outer flange, 1.0 mm inter-flange distance), it ensures rigid, leak-resistant seating across thin-membrane testing barriers. It serves as an ideal hardware element for micro-fluidic pressure monitoring, surface modification research, membrane fluid flow studies, and technical instructional displays.
