While many individuals are content with the fast, comfortable fit offered by BTEs and Canal Receiver Technology instruments with standard closed or open quick-fit domes, a growing number of customers prefer a truly customized SlimTip solution because of its outstanding durability, excellent retention in the ear and hypoallergenic properties. With SlimTip from Phonak, users now have an optimum mix of comfort, cosmetics, convenience and retention when fitting micro BTE and CRT devices.
SlimTip is available in two different styles both featuring the unique FlexFit™ system, the advanced connection system between SlimTip and SlimTube/CRT xS Receiver which allows full 360° rotation and flexible positioning so the device can rest comfortably behind the ear. SlimTip H is a hollow shell type version and features a cavity vent that accommodates any venting requirement, from none to completely open. SlimTip S is a solid earpiece offering vent options from zero to 2.5 mm diameter.

The exclusive design even permits fast and simple wax filter changes with no need to dismantle the system.

The FlexFit connection system and the new SlimTip removal tool make SlimTip attachment and removal a snap. Gentle pressure with the tool on the canal tip is all it takes to release the SlimTip and remove it without undue stress.
