Description
The Aspen Protek Tapered Probe Covers come in a single tapered configuration shaped for endocavity probes. The cover narrows from 5 in to 2 in across its 24 in length, giving compatible probes a closer fit at the end. It arrives as a sterile kit with sterile gel and 2 bands, ready for the exam.
- One Focused Configuration – A single 5 in to 2 in by 24 in size, with no guesswork at ordering time.
- Tapered End Fit – The narrowing profile follows the probe for a better fit on compatible probes.
- Complete Sterile Kit – The cover arrives with sterile gel and 2 bands in the kit.
- Endocavity Format – The tapered style serves endocavity probes in the Protek line.
Tapered Covers for Endocavity Ultrasound Probes
Some endocavity work needs a wider start than the narrowest covers offer, and this tapered cover is built for exactly that case. It opens at 5 in wide and narrows steadily to a 2 in end over 24 in, a profile that follows compatible probes closely. Like the rest of the Protek line, the cover forms a barrier between probe and patient that helps minimize cross-contamination. It also protects the probe and reduces the post-procedure clean-up after the exam. The single configuration is sterile and single-use, kitted with sterile gel and 2 bands.

Why Ultrasound Teams Choose Aspen Protek Tapered Probe Covers
Not every endocavity exam suits the narrowest cover on the shelf, and stocking a second tapered option usually means sorting through a long variant list. This listing keeps it simple, with one configuration that tapers from 5 in to 2 in and arrives as a complete sterile kit. The team grabs the same box every time and gets the same fit.
- No Variant Sorting – A single configuration means the right cover is the only cover in the box.
- Wider Opening, Close End – The 5 in opening eases application while the 2 in end keeps the fit close.
- Ready Out of the Kit – Sterile gel and bands are included, so setup needs nothing from another shelf.
- A Distinct Taper Point – The 2 in end sits between general purpose widths and the narrowest endocavity covers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is this cover used for?
It covers endocavity ultrasound probes during exams, forming a barrier between the probe and the patient. That barrier helps minimize cross-contamination and reduces post-procedure clean-up.
What size is the cover?
The single size is 5 in to 2 in by 24 in, tapering from a 5 in opening to a 2 in end. The metric equivalent is 13cm-5cm by 61cm.
What comes in the kit?
The kit includes the probe cover, sterile gel, and 2 bands. Everything for the exam setup is in the one kit.
How is it different from the SlimFit style?
Both styles serve endocavity probes with tapered profiles, but this cover tapers to a 2 in end in one 24 in size. The SlimFit style narrows further, to 1.25 in, across four sizes.
Is the cover sterile?
Yes, this configuration is sterile. It is also single-use, so a fresh cover starts every exam.
Can the cover be reused?
No, it is intended for single use. Dispose of the cover after the exam and open a new kit for the next patient.
