Product Description
ConvaTec GentleCath Uncoated Male Straight-Tip catheters are single-use PVC intermittent catheters intended for male intermittent catheterisation. This product variant is the 12 FR male straight-tip catheter sold in factory packaging as 100 units per box (Convatec SKU 501003).
Specifications
- French size: 12 FR (12 CH).
- Material: uncoated PVC as sold by the manufacturer.
- Tip style: straight, soft rounded insertion tip with polished, rounded drainage eyelets.
- Male length: manufacturer lists the male length variant at approximately 16 inches (15.9").
- Pack configuration: 100 catheters per box (manufacturer SKU 501003).
What is included
- Box contains 100 individually packaged, single-use, sterile catheters (no lubricating solution or extra accessories are included in the standard BX/100 pack). If lubricant or single-use funnels are required, they must be purchased separately.
How to tell this variant apart from adjacent variants
- SKU 501003 and the 12 FR size marking identify this specific variant; adjacent sizes in the same GentleCath range use different SKUs (e.g., 501002 = 10 FR, 501004 = 14 FR) and the male coude (coudé/Tiemann) tip uses separate SKUs.
Condition and packaging
- This listing describes the factory-packaged product (box of 100) as published by ConvaTec. Photographs provided should show either the box SKU/label or the manufacturer image to confirm factory packaging; individual catheter photos will match the straight rounded tip shown in manufacturer images.
Usage and safety notes
- These are single-use, sterile catheters supplied for intermittent catheterisation. Follow clinical guidance or prescriber instructions for single use and disposal.
- This product may require a prescription or supplier verification in some jurisdictions; check local regulations or payer requirements before purchase.
Limitations and warnings
- Not hydrophilic or lubricated; do not assume a hydrophilic coating or included saline/water sachet is present.
- Not suitable for users requiring a coude/Tiemann tip or a different French size — confirm size and tip before purchase.
- If the box label or SKU is not visible in seller photos, condition/packaging cannot be independently verified (see warnings).
