Description
The HR Healthcare TruCath Uncoated Intermittent Catheters are made for intermittent catheterization, a small procedure repeated thousands of times, so the catheter has to disappear into the routine. This range covers the coatings, tips, lengths and French sizes that home and clinical users catheterize with every day.
- Lubricant Freedom – The uncoated build gives the user freedom to choose the type, amount and application of lubricant for each catheterization.
- Heat-Polished Eyelets – Staggered, heat-polished eyelets support smooth insertion and withdrawal and complete drainage.
- Sterile Single-Use – Each catheter is individually packaged and sterile single-use, so every catheterization starts with a fresh catheter.
- Size Range – 8 Fr to 18 Fr across the configurations on this page.
- Manufacturer – Made by HR Healthcare in York, Pennsylvania.
Main Description
The TruCath Uncoated gives care teams a grounded option from a manufacturer that builds complete catheter and ultrasound systems. Configurations on this page run 8 Fr to 18 Fr in 16 in, 10 in and 6 in lengths. Sterile single-use packaging means every catheterization starts with a catheter that has never been handled, opened or stored loose. Insertion kits and lubricating jelly from the same maker complete the routine without mixing product lines. Stocking by the case keeps the monthly routine supplied without gaps, and the configuration list carries the full run of item numbers.

Why Choose This Product?
The TruCath Uncoated earns its place in a self-care routine because intermittent catheterization is a technique repeated for years, and consistency is what keeps it safe. HR Healthcare builds the catheters, kits and lubricant as one routine, so nothing in the sequence changes from day to day.
- Technique Stays Consistent – The same catheter, in the same package, at every catheterization keeps a self-care routine predictable for the user.
- A Complete System – Catheters, insertion kits and lubricating jelly are built by HR Healthcare to work together in one routine.
- HR Healthcare Depth – HR Healthcare manufactures its catheter range in York, Pennsylvania, and supports it with published instructions for use.
- Stock by the Case – Case counts matched to monthly catheterization volume make reordering a calendar task, not a crisis.
Manuals and Troubleshooting Guides
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these catheters reusable?
No, they are sterile single-use intermittent catheters, used for one catheterization and then discarded. That single-use routine is the infection-control standard for intermittent catheterization.
What French sizes and lengths are available?
French sizes run 8 Fr to 18 Fr and lengths run 16 in, 10 in and 6 in, as listed for each configuration. Female, pediatric and standard lengths are included where the manufacturer offers them.
Which tip options are offered?
Tip options are named in each configuration for the lines that offer them, and straight tips cover routine drainage. The coudé tip is the curved build for navigating an enlarged prostate or a difficult urethra.
Do these catheters need separate lubricant?
Lubrication depends on the line: hydrophilic and pre-lubricated builds are ready to use, while uncoated builds take a separate lubricant such as HR Lubricating Jelly. The product title and specifications state which build each configuration is.
How are the catheters packed?
They ship 30 per box and 10 boxes per case, sold exactly as the manufacturer packs them. Case counts are stated on every configuration.
