The Hartmann Ear Speculum Round Chrome Set of 3 includes specula measuring 3 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm, designed for veterinary otoscopic examinations. Made of chrome-plated surgical stainless steel, each speculum easily attaches to an otoscope for clear visualization of the animal’s ear canal. Their smooth, funnel-shaped design ensures gentle insertion and accurate inspection across a range of patient sizes.

Designed to maximize light reflection and provide a clear, unobstructed view of the tympanic membrane and canal walls in dogs, cats, and small mammals, these ear specula have a traditional Hartmann funnel form with a round chrome finish. Three diameters (3 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm) are included in the set to fit ear canals from kittens and puppies to adult dogs and largerbreeds. While the smooth, tapered distal end slides softly into the ear without snagging on fur or debris, each speculum's proximal end fits firmly onto typical veterinary otoscopes. Made of premium German surgical stainless steel with long-lasting chrome plating, these reusable specula are designed to withstand repeated autoclaving and resist corrosion. Their ergonomic length provides the best control during simple operations, cerumen removal, or regular inspections.

Applications

•    Otoscopic examination of canine, feline, and small mammal ear canals
•    Cerumen (“earwax”) removal and debris clearance in veterinary patients
•    Visualization during minor in-ear procedures (e.g., foreign body extraction)
•    Monitoring otitis, perforations, and other aural pathologies
•    Preoperative assessment before auditory surgery or treatment

Key Anatomical Features

•    Funnel-Shaped Tip: Gently widens and straightens the ear canal for optimal visualization
•    Round Lumen: Circular cross-section matches natural canal shape, reducing trauma
•    Tapered Distal End: Slender profile eases insertion past fur and debris
•    Proximal Collar: Wide, thicker edge securely attaches to standard veterinary otoscopes
•    Overall Length (~1½"): Provides sufficient reach without over-insertion

A reliable, veterinarian-grade speculum set that enables safe, precise ear examinations across diverse animal patients.
