The tray is typically lightweight, rectangular, and stackable for storage.
Dimensions are generally compact, with typical illustrative sizes around 10 inches in length, 9 inches in width
Compartments are designed to keep items organized and separate to minimize cross-contamination risk, sometimes featuring specific lubrication channels or steps to hold syringes securely.
Adult sizes typically range from 12 Fr to 18 Fr.
The "golden rule" is to use the smallest effective size to minimize urethral trauma and irritation.

A catheter tray is a pre	packaged, sterile kit containing the necessary instruments and supplies to perform a catheterization procedure efficiently while maintaining an aseptic environment. It is primarily used by healthcare professionals in hospitals and clinics to minimize the risk of infection, such as catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs).
Material	Stainless Steel
Tray	Often made from medical-grade, non-toxic polymers like polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), or polystyrene (styrene). Some durable, reusable trays may be made of stainless steel.
Catheter	Commonly made from flexible, biocompatible materials such as silicone (100%), latex (often coated with silicone or hydrogel to reduce irritation and encrustation), or polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
Sterility	The entire tray and its contents are delivered as a sterile, single-use, individually packed unit (unless the tray is reusable, in which case it is designed to be autoclavable). Ethylene Oxide (EO) is a common sterilization method.
Catheter Sizing	Catheter diameter is measured in the French (Fr) scale, where 1 Fr = 0.33 mm.
Safety Features	Trays and instruments typically feature smooth, rounded edges to reduce the risk of injury. Catheter tips may be straight or curved to navigate different anatomies or obstructions.
