Sklar Cannula Pipe Cleaner, 12 Inch
A 12 inch flexible pipe cleaner from Sklar used to clear debris from narrow instrument channels and tubing ahead of sterile reprocessing.
The Sklar Cannula Pipe Cleaner is a 12 inch flexible cleaning tool, offered in this listing in quarter inch and eighth inch widths, used to reach into narrow tubing, cannulas or instrument channels that a stiffer brush cannot access. Its flexible construction allows it to bend through curved or angled lumens, helping sterile processing staff dislodge debris along the full length of a channel rather than only at the opening.
Sterile processing technicians and theatre reprocessing teams use pipe cleaners of this kind as a complement to cannula brushes, particularly for very narrow bore instruments or tubing where a rigid brush would not fit or flex adequately. Facilities that process fine bore laparoscopic, urological or ENT instrumentation typically keep a stock of these cleaners across available widths, since matching cleaner diameter to channel size is important for effective manual cleaning before instruments proceed to washer disinfection and sterilisation.
