The 6855544B-Box Puregold Coude/tiemann 2-way Latex Foley Catheter 20 Fr 30 Cc is a single-use, sterile urinary catheter designed for patients who require intermittent or continuous bladder drainage.

Made from natural latex rubber with a 30 cc balloon capacity and sized at 20 French (Fr), this two-way catheter allows for both urine drainage and balloon inflation to secure placement. The catheter is yellow-tinted for visibility during clinical use and is intended for short-term catheterization under medical supervision.

Who is 6855544B-Box Puregold Coude/tiemann 2-way Latex Foley Catheter 20 Fr 30 Cc for?
This catheter is intended for individuals with challenging catheterization needs, including men with BPH, urethral strictures, or post-surgical swelling. It's commonly used in clinical settings or home care under healthcare provider guidance. Patients with latex allergies should avoid this product. It suits both short-term post-op use and transitional care.
How does 6855544B-Box Puregold Coude/tiemann 2-way Latex Foley Catheter 20 Fr 30 Cc compare?
Compared to standard straight-tip latex catheters, the Tiemann tip offers superior maneuverability in obstructed urethras. It is more flexible than silicone or PVC alternatives, allowing easier insertion, though less suitable for long-term use. Unlike hydrophilic or silicone catheters, it lacks self-lubrication and may require additional gel for comfort. It is more affordable than coated or antimicrobial catheters but carries latex allergy risks absent in latex-free options.
Best use cases
- →Catheterization in enlarged prostates
- →Post-surgical urinary retention
- →Urethral stricture management
- →Short-term bladder drainage
- →Clinical or home care settings
Is Puregold Coude/tiemann 2-way Latex Foley Catheter 20 Fr 30 Cc right for you?
This catheter is best for patients with difficult urinary catheterization due to prostate issues or strictures. It requires basic medical knowledge for safe use—intended for healthcare providers or trained caregivers. If you have a latex allergy, consider silicone or hydrophilic alternatives. Compare with latex-free or antimicrobial catheters for long-term or sensitive use. Always consult a clinician before switching types.
How it compares: Compared to standard polypropylene or straight-tip catheters, the Tiemann tip offers better navigation through obstructions. It's more flexible than rigid PVC options but less suited for extended wear than silicone catheters. Priced lower than coated or antimicrobial models, it's a cost-effective solution for short-term, challenging insertions.
