Key takeaways

Made from 100% medical-grade silicone, so the catheter is latex-free for patients and tenders that exclude natural rubber latex.
2-way and 3-way types with an inflatable retention balloon; supplied EO sterile for single use.
Specify this version for latex-free programs, with dwell time taken from the IFU; the silicone-coated latex version is the economical option for routine drainage.

The HOPE Medical silicone Foley catheter is an indwelling urinary catheter made entirely from medical-grade silicone. It is latex-free, which makes it the version to specify for latex-allergic patients, latex-free hospital policies and long-term care buyers. It keeps the same 2-way and 3-way options as our latex Foley catheter, so distributors can offer both materials in one urology range.

Key Features

100% medical-grade silicone, latex-free
Soft, flexible catheter with a smooth surface
Inflatable retention balloon
2-way and 3-way types
EO sterilized, single use

Applications

Bladder catheterization and urinary drainage where latex must be avoided, and indwelling programs in ICU, urology wards, nursing homes and home care. All-silicone catheters are a common choice when a facility's protocol favors silicone for longer dwell times; the permitted dwell time is always taken from the IFU.

How it differs from the latex Foley catheter

The latex version is silicone-coated latex and costs less. This version is all silicone and latex-free. State the material clearly on your RFQ so the two are never mixed in one shipment.

Buyer questions, answered

Clear answers for preparing a comparable sourcing request for Silicone Foley Catheter.

What is the difference between silicone and latex Foley catheters?

A silicone Foley catheter is made entirely of silicone and is latex-free. A latex Foley catheter has a latex body, often with a silicone coating, and costs less. Silicone is chosen for latex-allergic patients and latex-free policies; latex is common for routine short-term drainage.

How many days can a silicone Foley catheter be used?

The maximum dwell time is stated in the instructions for use and in the facility's clinical protocol, not on a product page. All-silicone catheters are often selected for longer indwelling use, but the IFU supplied with your order is the reference. Request it with the quotation.

Which silicone Foley catheter sizes are most common?

Adult sizes sit in the middle of the French (Fr) range, smaller sizes are used for children, and larger sizes for specific clinical needs such as irrigation. The size for each patient is chosen by the clinician. Send your size mix and we confirm the Fr sizes and balloon volumes available for the 2-way and 3-way types.

Is the silicone Foley catheter sterile?

Yes. The listed sterilization method is ethylene oxide (EO), and the catheter is for single use. Sterility labeling and shelf life for your market are confirmed in the product documents.
