The elastomer wiper disks form a 360° circumferential seal in the channel, creating a suction effect that draws detergent and an additional flush through the lumen, resulting in removal of up to 96% of soil in a single pass.1,2
The flexible and patented PULL THRU™ elastomer material is non-abrasive and less damaging to endoscope channels than standard brushes.

How does PULL THRU™ work?
The leader end is inserted into the channel and then pulled from the far end, drawing the wiper disks through the channel.
A suction effect draws detergent and an additional flush through the lumen as the elastomer wiper disks are drawn, created by the 360° circumferential seal formed in the channel.
Patented PULL THRU™ Elastomer technology is scientifically proven to remove as much soil in a single pass as five passes with a standard bristle brush.4
