Description
The AG Yankauer Suction Handle is a rigid bulb tip Yankauer with a vented handle in blue, the standard oral suction tip for clearing the airway during suctioning. A suction aspirator unit that is filtered, sealed and serviced on rhythm simply outlasts one that is run until it complains. That is the whole job: fit the suction aspirator machine properly, work quietly, and last the full service interval.
- Bulb Tip with Vent – The bulb tip and its vent give the operator control of suction at the patient end.
- Sterile, Single Use – Supplied sterile for one patient, the format the suction aspirator suction path expects at its tip.
- AG Filtration Pedigree – Built by a manufacturer whose core business is medical filtration, in the same line as its CPAP and oxygen filters.
- Standard Connection – The handle end fits standard suction tubing, so the yankauer swaps in without adapters.
A Rated Barrier in the Suction Line
This yankauer is a rigid bulb tip Yankauer with a vented handle in blue, the standard oral suction tip for clearing the airway during suctioning. The yankauer is the working end of the suction path, the part the operator actually aims. Its bulb tip and vent put control at the fingers, so suction can be applied and released without reaching for the machine. Supplied sterile for single-patient use on the suction aspirator, it is replaced rather than reprocessed. Its handle fits standard suction tubing, so it joins the setup the aspirator already runs.

Why Suction Parts from a Filter Specialist
Suction filters sit on the hygiene line of front-line equipment, so their maker matters. The AG Yankauer Suction Handle comes from AG Industries, a filtration manufacturer whose catalog has centered on parts like this since 1982. The media rating, the housing and the standard connection all come from that single focus.
- Specialist Manufacture – Filtration is AG's core business since 1982, and the bulb tip suction tip is a core catalog part, not a sideline.
- Pattern-True Fit – Built to the suction aspirator pattern at its bulb tip end, so the swap is a like-for-like change with no adapting.
- Service-Life Value – On the suction aspirator, the cheap suction tip is the one that fits: no callbacks, no early replacement.
- One Trusted Source – AG's catalog covers this suction tip and the rest of the suction aspirator wear list, one manufacturer across the maintenance list.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the bacteria filter protect?
Mounted in the line of the suction aspirator at its inline filter connection, it keeps bacteria, virus particles and aspirated fluid on the patient side. The pump behind the inline filter stays clean because the filter does the stopping.
How is this filter rated?
AG rates the media in this inline filter part at over 99.999% bacterial and viral filtration efficiency. AG's own catalog prints the rating for this inline filter part.
How do I know which connection I need?
This listing's connection is the inline filter connection for the suction aspirator path. Match the inline filter to your machine's port and your tubing's barb sizes before ordering, because suction fittings are not universal.
Are the canisters reusable?
The canisters used with the suction aspirator are disposable and are replaced rather than reprocessed, and the inline filter at the inline filter connection guarding them is changed at the same visit. The float valve or hydrophobic shut-off in the lid is what protects the pump behind the inline filter as the canister fills.
Is this an AG part or the machine maker's part?
AG Industries makes it, as an aftermarket part patterned for the suction aspirator at its inline filter connection. AG's own catalog is the source for this inline filter part's specifications.
