Description
The Bionix DeClogger is a flexible, single-use device that clears obstructed G, J and PEG feeding tubes in less than two minutes. Clearing the tube at the bedside prevents unnecessary tube replacements and the feeding and medication interruptions that come with them.
- Under two minutes – clears obstructed G, J and PEG tubes fast
- Over-insertion disc – the handle disc stops the device at a safe depth
- Five matched styles – colors map to tube type and French size
Clear the Tube, Skip the Replacement
A clogged feeding tube usually means a replaced tube, a missed feeding schedule and an avoidable procedure for the patient. The DeClogger is designed to break through blockages quickly, with a flexible working end that follows the tube instead of forcing it. A small disc at the handle end prevents over-insertion, so the device cannot be advanced past its intended depth. Five color coded styles match tube type and French size, covering G and J tubes from 14 to 22 Fr and PEG and replacement tubes from 14 to 24 Fr. The device is single-use only and is intended for use by licensed medical professionals. It is not intended for nasogastric or nasojejunal tubes.

Why Tube Teams Stock the DeClogger
Every avoided tube replacement saves a procedure, a confirmation study and hours of missed nutrition. A boxed declogger on the unit turns a clog from an escalation into a two-minute bedside fix.
- Fewer tube replacements – clearing in place avoids removal, reinsertion and placement checks
- Nutrition stays on schedule – feedings and medications resume without a long interruption
- Safer by design – the handle disc prevents over-insertion during clearing
- Right size on hand – color coded styles for both G/J and PEG tube families
