Hello all, I have a question that some of you may be able to help with.

The stethoscope I use is a Littman Master Classic (the original) that I was given prior to going to medic school in 1991. It is still in excellent condition EXCEPT for the eartips...one of them is broken. These are the screw on types - not the snap on type found on the Littmans of today.

Does anyone know where I may be able to find these screw on soft seal eartips???

Thank you all in advance.

have you tried checking with littman co and see if they can help you. They might have a website, also check allnurses. I have ordered a lot of stuff from them and always been happy with results.

I just did a search and found that 3M has discontinued the old thread style ear pieces. They recommend purchasing a new binaural including tips. Here is the site I found it at https://www.steeles.com/catalog/3maccessories.html

Hopes this helps.

Thank you both. Yes, I did check with Littman several years ago and they sent me some new earpieces. I guess now I've gotta bite the bullet and get new binaurals. Thanks again!
