The Dukal 75406 Roundstick Sponges are sterile, high-quality sponges designed for general medical, surgical, and wound care applications. Each sponge measures 1.5 inches in diameter and is securely attached to a wooden round stick handle for easy control during cleaning or prepping.

Key Benefits
The pre-attached stick handle ensures greater precision and reduces the need for direct contact, supporting aseptic technique and minimizing contamination risk. The absorbent material efficiently removes fluids and debris from the wound or procedural site, allowing clinicians to maintain a clear field. The sterile packaging and disposable design help promote patient safety and simplify cleanup between procedures.
Compatibility and Applications
Dukal Roundstick Sponges are compatible with most surgical and wound care procedures where sterile cleaning, prepping, or fluid removal is required. They are widely used in operating rooms, emergency departments, and outpatient clinics for cleansing wounds, applying antiseptics, and absorbing excess fluid. The 1.5-inch sponge size provides excellent balance between absorbency and precision in small to medium area procedures.
Usage Guidelines
Open the package using aseptic technique. Use the sponge end to gently cleanse, apply solution, or absorb fluids as required. Discard after single use. Do not reuse or re-sterilize. Store in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight to maintain sterility and product integrity until use.

They are single-use, sterile products designed for compliance with FDA and CE requirements for medical disposables. Each lot is tested to ensure consistent absorbency and product reliability.
Comparison with Competitor Products
Compared to generic cotton swabs or standard surgical sponges, the Dukal Roundstick Sponge offers better reach and control through its sturdy stick handle.
