Satin Finish Tubing
Littmann stethoscopes’ satin finish tubing formula means that the same performance you’ve come to expect from the 3M™ Littmann® Classic III™ Stethoscope is now available with a more comfortable, flexible feel that is not likely to stick to hair or clothing.
The satin finish also offers a more flexible feel for easier folding and stowing of your stethoscope, so you can keep it with you between patients, and its specially-formulated coating is easy to clean, with debris- and scratch-resistance to help preserve the look and life of your stethoscope.
When compared to uncoated tubing, satin finish tubing is softer with a silkier feel, more stain-resistant, easier to clean, and featuring a pliability that makes it easier to put into a lab coat.
Tunable diaphragm technology—a 3M invention—lets clinicians hear different frequency sounds by simply adjusting the pressure on the chestpiece. Hold the chestpiece with light pressure to hear low frequency sounds; press a little more to hear higher frequency sounds. This time-saving feature allows the healthcare provider to focus on the patient, while the non-chill diaphragm provides patient comfort.
Headset tension is easily adjusted for head size and comfort by squeezing together or pulling apart the eartubes. Snap-tight, soft-sealing eartips conform to individual ears for an excellent acoustic seal and comfortable fit. Eartips snap firmly onto the ends of the eartubes and, for safety, require a significant effort to remove.
The Classic III stethoscope is made in the USA for consistent quality. It comes complete with large and small soft-sealing eartips, non-chill bell sleeve, and instructions.
