Yankauer Suction Tube with Thumb Control 29cm– German Stainless Steel

The Yankauer suction tube with thumb control from Mosh Instruments is a 29cm surgical suction instrument for fast, controlled removal of blood, fluids, irrigation solutions and surgical debris. Its thumb-control vent lets the surgeon regulate suction with one finger. That way, the operative field stays clear without interrupting the procedure. Because we make it from premium German surgical stainless steel, you can reuse and autoclave it again and again.

In fact, the Yankauer suction tube is one of the most widely used suction instruments in operating rooms worldwide. Its curved handle and smooth, rounded atraumatic tip give excellent reach and visibility while protecting surrounding tissue. As a result, it is a standard part of general surgery sets, plastic surgery trays, ENT instrument sets and liposuction accessory collections.
