AI BLUE CATHETER
In stock
In veterinary medicine, an AI (Artificial Insemination) Catheter Blue is a single-use, flexible tubular device—often distinguished by its blue color coding or color-specific handle—engineered to safely bypass an animal's cervix and deposit semen directly into the uterus or cranial vagina.

Specs & features.
These catheters are typically manufactured from lightweight, medical-grade, non-toxic polymers like polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride (PVC), paired with a soft foam, rubber, or silicone tip. In swine production, the blue catheter often features a spiral or "corkscrew" tip that mimics the anatomy of a boar's penis, allowing it to lock securely into the sow’s cervix to prevent semen leakage. In canine breeding, it often takes the form of a semi-rigid rod featuring an integrated blue inflation balloon (airbag) near the tip, which expands post-insertion to simulate a natural tie and stimulate uterine contractions to draw semen forward.

- Anatomically Configured Tips: Features specialized tip architectures—such as a foam sponge head, a spiral corkscrew, or a balloon-cuff—to establish a flush, leak-proof seal against the cervix.
- Integrated Airbag/Balloon Design (Canine Variant): Includes a manual inflation line that expands a blue cuff to lock the catheter in place, mimicking a natural canine mating lock and preventing semen backflow.
- Universal Luer-Lock or Handle Adapter: Equipped with a standard rear attachment cone or matching blue handle that fits cleanly into semen syringes, dose bottles, or tubes without creating air gaps.
