Argyle™ Sigmoid Surgical Suction Set, Model 166031 features an 18 French (6.0 mm) sigmoid suction instrument connected to 3/16″ (≈ 5 mm) × 6 ft (1.8 m) tubing. This sterile, disposable set is made of semi‑rigid, transparent medical‑grade plastic, enabling visual monitoring of fluid flow during procedures. The integrated design is intended for use with sigmoidoscopes or in open surgical suction applications where reliable, single‑use aspirational control is required.

Constructed for clinical convenience, the semi-rigid suction tip resists collapse while maintaining sufficient flexibility for maneuverability and tissue safety. The transparent tubing allows immediate identification of clogs or blockages. Packaged in cases of 20 units per case, the 166031 set is latex‑free and non-conductive, minimizing risk in operating room environments.

Clinically, the Argyle Sigmoid Set streamlines suction workflows: the large 18 Fr diameter offers high-volume fluid removal while the smooth, open-ended suction tip minimizes trauma. The six‑foot tubing provides surgical teams with generous reach without compromising vacuum efficiency. As a sterile, single‑use device, it supports infection control protocols and procedural safety in gastrointestinal, colorectal, and other surgical specialties. The set is widely stocked through surgical supply channels and is validated for adult use in operative and endoscopic suction applications.
