GentleCath Catheter Straight Tip for Men 16" 100/bx 16Fr single

Why Choose GentleCath Straight Tip Catheter for Men 16" 16Fr 100/Bx

This catheter is built for adult male users on a clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) routine who have been clinically directed to a straight-tip catheter rather than a coudé format, and who use uncoated catheters with separate lubricant application. The 16Fr French size is a slightly larger adult male intermittent calibre — useful when smaller sizes don't provide adequate drainage flow or when clinically directed for the user's anatomy. The 16" length covers the full male urethral path. The polished drainage eyelets help support smoother insertion and consistent urine flow. The uncoated PVC format allows the user to apply their preferred sterile lubricant before each insertion. Box of 100 supports approximately two to three weeks of supply at typical CIC frequency. Confirm PVC construction and eyelet specifications on the SKU before publishing. Convatec lists the GentleCath male straight tip 16Fr SKU as 501005. Convatec is a long-established US-origin medical supply manufacturer with a position in continence care, ostomy care, and wound care product design.
