These disposable buttons are designed for rat infusion studies lasting more than 2 weeks. After one to two weeks the subcutaneous tissue will grow into the Dacron® mesh, making the sutures irrelevant.
The tethers are available in 2 standard sizes for rats: .090" clear lumen for single channel infusion and .105" for two channel infusion. (For a button tether for mice, see the LW62.) A complete tether contains one button, 12" spring and a quick-disconnect coupler. The DC95 buttons include a silicone seal for a 3Fr catheter to help reduce catheter movement and bacteria ingress.
