100% Medical Silicone Disposable 2/3-Way Standard Foley Urethral Catheter
Catheter: A catheter is a flexible tube that is inserted into the body to drain fluids, administer medications, or perform other medical procedures. In the case of a urethral catheter, it is inserted through the urethra into the bladder to allow for the drainage of urine.
Silicone-Coated: The catheter you mentioned is coated with a silicone material. Silicone coating provides a smooth surface that can enhance comfort during insertion and removal of the catheter. It helps reduce friction and potential trauma to the urethra during catheterization.
Disposable: A disposable catheter is intended for single-use and is discarded after each use. Disposable catheters are typically sterile and individually packaged, reducing the risk of infection and simplifying the catheterization process.
2/3-Way Foley Catheter: A Foley catheter is a type of indwelling catheter that has a balloon at the tip. The balloon is inflated with sterile water after insertion into the bladder, anchoring the catheter in place. A 2-way Foley catheter typically has two channels or lumens—an inflation lumen for the balloon and a drainage lumen for urine collection.
A 3-way Foley catheter has an additional irrigation lumen for flushing the bladder or instilling medication.
Urethral Catheter: A urethral catheter is designed to be inserted through the urethra, which is the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body. Urethral catheters are commonly used for short- or long-term urinary drainage, such as in cases of urinary retention, post-surgery recovery, or monitoring of urine output.
It's important to note that the usage and application of urethral catheters should be performed by trained healthcare professionals following proper sterile techniques and guidelines to minimize the risk of infection or other complications.

What is the difference between a 2 way and 3-way catheter?
A 2-way catheter has two lumens – one to drain fluid (in this case urine) and one to inject fluid or medication (in this case water into the balloon). There are also 3-way urinary catheters which have a third lumen to flush water into the bladder.
What is a 2 way Foley catheter used for?
Two-way Foleys are indwelling urinary catheters used to empty the bladder when a person cannot independently do so; Designed with two channels enclosed in a single flexible tube, two-way Foley catheters are inserted through the urethra and held in place by a small balloon inflated with a sterile solution.
What is the difference between Foley catheter and urethral catheter?
Foley catheters are meant for longer term use by patients who are unable to use the toilet themselves. Straight catheters are simply straight tubes (without the balloon feature of a Foley catheter). They are meant for quick drainage of the bladder and not for long term use.
