Description
The Welch Allyn DuraShock BP Tubing is a short 1.25 inch blood pressure tubing length with a female tri-purpose connector, for DuraShock DS65 and DS66 trigger style hand aneroid gauges. It suits clinicians replacing the short connector tubing on their trigger style DuraShock gauges.
- For DS65 and DS66 – the tubing is made for the DuraShock trigger style hand aneroid gauges
- Female Tri-Purpose Connector – the TP connector is the fitting this gauge family uses
- 1.25 Inch Length – the short stub length is the gauge side connection, not a patient run
The Short Gauge-Side Tubing on DuraShock Trigger Aneroids
Trigger style DuraShock gauges connect to their cuffs through a short tubing stub at the gauge, and that stub is a wear part. This 1.25 inch length carries the female tri-purpose connector the DS65 and DS66 gauges use. When the stub splits or its connector loosens, the gauge leaks at the handpiece no matter how sound the cuff is. Replacing the stub restores the connection without replacing the gauge. It is a small part with an outsized effect, because every reading passes air through it twice.

Why the Little Stub Gets Replaced First
Leaks at the gauge masquerade as gauge failure, and the stub is the cheapest suspect in the chain. This genuine Welch Allyn stub restores the DS65 and DS66 connection with the correct tri-purpose fitting.
- Correct Fitting – the female TP connector is the gauge family's own pattern
- Cheap Diagnosis – a fresh stub separates tubing leaks from true gauge faults
- Reading Integrity – a sealed handpiece connection holds pressure through the measurement
