How to Choose Tympanometer & OAE Eartips

Ordering replacement eartips for a tympanometer or OAE system starts with identifying the instrument and the probe you actually use. A similar-looking tip is not enough to establish compatibility. Use this checklist before placing a supplies order.

Five details to check before ordering

  1. Manufacturer and exact instrument model. Read the equipment label rather than relying on a shorthand name used in the clinic.
  2. Probe model or generation. Record the probe details separately. If the probe has been replaced, the instrument model alone may not identify the accessory you need.
  3. Current part number. Keep the SKU from a known-compatible package or previous order. Confirm it against the current product listing.
  4. Tip size and style. Check the listed dimensions and the manufacturer's intended use. Do not treat color or appearance as a universal sizing system.
  5. Package quantity. Confirm whether the price is for individual pieces, a bag, a box or an assortment, and check what is included.

What to send when you need help matching a tip

Email the instrument make and model, probe identification, current tip SKU if available, and a clear photo of the existing packaging or probe connection. Keep patient information out of the photo. Tell us whether you need the same replacement or help identifying an unfamiliar setup.

Use the make-and-model finder

Start with our eartips by make and model collection, then read the individual listing before ordering. A collection is a starting point; the product's stated compatibility and your exact probe configuration determine the match. If a generation or part number is unclear, ask before purchasing.

Tips, probes and inserts are different supplies

Disposable probe eartips, replacement probe components and insert-earphone accessories serve different equipment needs. Browse parts and supplies for the relevant category instead of assuming these items are interchangeable. Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions for selection, use and disposal.

Common ordering questions

Can I choose a replacement by color alone?

No. Confirm the part number, size and listed equipment compatibility; color alone does not establish a match.

Does a matching brand name mean every tip fits?

Do not assume that. Check the model, probe and generation shown in the listing.

What if I cannot find my part number?

Send the equipment and probe details plus a photo of the packaging or connector. Our team can review the information before you order.
