3.0mm Ø
02-313-03 is sized at 3.0 mm diameter, placing it in the mid-fine range suitable for controlled aspiration or irrigation in moderately restricted spaces. The 3 mm lumen balances adequate flow capacity with reduced risk of excessive tissue engagement. Surgeons select this diameter when finer instruments lack sufficient volume and larger ones prove too bulky.
Next Edge Surgical LLC produces the instrument to maintain precise internal and external dimensions after sterilization. In the operating room the 3 mm size supports steady vacuum without the higher suction forces sometimes associated with wider tubes. Connection to standard tubing systems is immediate.
3.0 mm diameter for mid-range flow
Balanced capacity without excess bulk
Consistent dimensions after autoclaving
Post-use protocols emphasize thorough lumen cleaning to preserve the calibrated diameter and flow characteristics. Departments that stock a graduated series of diameters often place the 3 mm model between finer and coarser options.
Within the range of trocars, suction tubes and cannulas , 02-313-03 offers a practical mid-range caliber. It delivers reliable fluid clearance in situations that require neither the smallest nor the largest available sizes.
