SSND-SHRTCATH 5 7 14
Recommended for open bore options
Take control of your daily routine with the SSND-SHRTCATH 5 7 14, an innovative, higher volume internal support tool built for advancing users. Originally inspired by a custom request from a prostatectomy survivor seeking an alternative to traditional, external incontinence methodologies, this premium platinum-cured silicone plug is engineered to provide reliable, self-retaining structural support. By removing the traditional large safety flange and extending the body, this design sits seamlessly within the canal, utilizing precise anatomical expansions to stay perfectly anchored during movement.
Anatomical Contouring & Flangeless Retention Mechanics:
-
The Gradual Entry Taper: Begins with a highly approachable 6mm diameter tip that smoothly guides the sound inward, gradually expanding up to 12mm as it traverses the forward canal.
-
The Advanced Retention Node: Crests at a prominent 14mm (42 French) retention ball designed to gently pass the targeted muscle threshold to establish a secure internal block.
-
The Sphincter Locking Valley: Immediately following the main ball, the diameter drops into a 9mm relief valley. This allows the primary sphincter muscle to comfortably contract and rest within the groove, securely capturing the plug.
-
The Terminal Flangeless Anchor: Concludes with a final expansion that swells back out to 12mm at the very end. This terminal node nestles right at the meatus opening to assist in keeping the plug stable while providing a secure external grip area for easy removal without a wide, protruding flange base that can be accidentally loosened by clothing.
Anatomical Depth Guide: With an overall length of approximately 5.5 inches (140mm), this piece provides intermediate to deep anterior coverage. It is 1.5 inches longer than our original Short Cath 4, allowing the 14mm retention bulb to sit deeply enough to interface directly with the primary muscular tracking zones of the lower pendulous and bulbar urethra, ensuring a secure seal without entering the deep bladder neck.
👑 Bob's Choice Recommendations
-
Experience Level: Intermediate. With a maximum expansion node of 14mm (42 French), this model is recommended for experienced users who are fully accustomed to high-volume stretching and require an unyielding, secure internal lock.
-
The Prime Durometer Recommendation: For a more advanced incontinence plug of this volume, Bob highly recommends our #00-50 (soft) or #10 (medium) material compositions.
Color Options: #18 and #30 are available in pure translucent. #00-20, #00-50, and #10 base colors are translucent white and can be mixed with any standard color.
