We usually keep good amount in stock, but for the larger Fr26 to Fr30 sizes you might want to confirm lead time — those aren’t always sitting on the shelf, especially if you need a 3-way configuration with a 30ml balloon.

The EO sterilization is standdard across all sizes, and they come individually packaged in peel-pouches so the sterile field stays intact until you open it. Shippng timeline is typically 7 to 10 business days if our company have the stock, but if you’re ordering a custom color or an oddball length like 400mm, add another 2 weeks or so.

100% medical grade silicone is what we use — no latex, no PVC blends, so you avoid the biocompatibility headaches some buyers run into with cheaper alternatives. The balloon expansion on these is pretty consistent, symmetrical actually, which matters when you’re inflating to seal against the bladder neck. That said, we don’t recommend them for long-term indwelling use beyond 30 days; the silicone can hold up fine, but the drainage eyes are sized for short-term drainage primarily.

You can get them in 1-way, 2-way, or 3-way — the 3-way lets you irrigate without removing the catheter, which some urology units prefer post-surgery. Sizes run form Fr6 up to Fr30, and there’s a color band on the funnel end so the nurse can grab the right size without squinting at the packging.

Actually, Fr6 is pretty small — mainly pediatric or very narrow urethra cases — but most buyers for standard adult use go with Fr16 to Fr18. The balloon capacities range from 3ml to 30ml, but for most Foley catheter applications you’re only inflating with 10ml of sterile water. What it does is keep the balloon centered and spherical, less chance of migration than some other brands we’ve handled.

One thing he’ll appreciate if you’re ordering in bulk: the quality guarantee period is one year, and the shelf life is two years, so you don’t need to rotate stock every few months. OEM service is avaliable, but minimum order quantities apply — usually 500 units or so for a custom spec.
We typically set MOQ at 5000 pieces for standard sizes like Fr14-Fr18, but we can negotiate lower quantities for first-time orders or specific models. Just reach out with your size and quantity needs.
Absolutely, we can share both certificates and the sterilization validation report upfront. Just drop us a request, and we’ll send them over along with the product specification sheet.
For OEM orders, including custom packaging and labeling, lead time is about 25-30 working days after design approval. Standard orders without customization ship within 15-20 working days.
Yes, Fr6 is available with a 3ml balloon, and it’s commonly used for pediatric or very narrow urethras. All sizes from Fr6 to Fr30 are made from 100% silicone, which is biocompatible and gentle on tissue.
Each catheter is individually packed in a sterile peel pouch, with 10 pouches per inner box. Shelf life is 2 years from sterilization date, but we guarantee product quality for one year after purchase.
