Full specifications & details

The latest version of the stethoscope that helps millions of medical professionals in their daily work. The Littmann Classic III Stethoscope offers high acoustic sensitivity for excellent performance, a versatile two-sided chestpiece with tunable diaphragms that let clinicians hear different frequency sounds by simply adjusting the pressure, snap-tight, soft-sealing eartips, and resilient next-generation tubing that retains its shape and flexibility. Ideal for students and medical professionals alike.

Littmann Classic III Stethoscopes are more than twice as loud as the next leading stethoscope, allowing you to more reliably and consistently hear heart sounds at lower frequencies (below 120Hz) like Korotkoff sounds, Mitral Stenosis and S3 and S4 Gallops when compared to other leading stethoscopes. This is based on tests against globally available comparable stethoscopes in an equivalent class using recorded heart sounds with diaphragm. The Littmann Classic III Stethoscope also weighs less than other stethoscopes, based on published weights of globally-available comparable stethoscopes in an equivalent class.

The Littmann Classic III Stethoscope combines high acoustic sensitivity with a versatile, two-sided chestpiece for excellent performance. Listen to, identify, and diagnose even the most subtle body sounds through the power of tunable diaphragm technology. Simply hold the chestpiece with light pressure to hear low-frequency sounds and increase pressure incrementally to hear higher-frequency sounds. Designed to be resilient, the Littmann Classic III Stethoscope is also built to withstand the rigors of healthcare. Made without natural rubber latex, the resilient, next-generation tubing retains its shape and flexibility even after folding tightly into a pocket. Similarly, its materials improve stethoscope lifespan with enhanced resistance to skin oils and alcohol. For everything that healthcare throws at you, turn to the Littmann Classic III Stethoscope.

Frequently asked questions
What is the warranty on the Littmann Classic III stethoscope?

The 3M Littmann Classic III Stethoscope carries a five-year warranty.

Can the Littmann Classic III be used for both adult and pediatric patient assessment?

The Littmann Classic III supports both adult and pediatric assessment through its two-sided chestpiece. The pediatric side can be converted to a traditional open bell by replacing the single-piece diaphragm with a non-chill rim.

How does the tunable diaphragm work on the Littmann Classic III?

The tunable diaphragm on the Littmann Classic III allows clinicians to hear different frequency sounds by adjusting applied pressure. Light pressure picks up low-frequency sounds, and incrementally increasing pressure shifts auscultation to higher-frequency sounds — without flipping the chestpiece.

What low-frequency heart sounds can the Littmann Classic III detect?

The Littmann Classic III is designed to more reliably and consistently hear heart sounds at frequencies below 120 Hz, including Korotkoff sounds, Mitral Stenosis, and S3 and S4 Gallops. This performance is based on tests against globally available comparable stethoscopes in an equivalent class using recorded heart sounds with diaphragm.

What are the physical dimensions and weight of the Littmann Classic III chestpiece?

The Littmann Classic III chestpiece weighs 2.9 ounces (82 g) and has a diameter of 1.7 inches (4.3 cm). The overall stethoscope length is 27 inches (69 cm), and the small diaphragm diameter is 1.3 inches (3.3 cm).

Is the Littmann Classic III made with natural rubber latex?

The Littmann Classic III is not made with natural rubber latex or phthalate plasticizers. The next-generation tubing also provides improved resistance to skin oils and alcohol, which extends the stethoscope's service life.

What materials are used in the headset and chestpiece of the Littmann Classic III?

The Littmann Classic III chestpiece is precision-machined stainless steel, and the headset is constructed from wide diameter aerospace alloy and anodized aluminum. The diaphragm is made from epoxy and fibreglass.

How easy is the Littmann Classic III diaphragm to clean?

The single-piece tunable diaphragm on the Littmann Classic III has a smooth surface without crevices, making it straightforward to clean and reattach. This design reduces the areas where contamination can accumulate during clinical use.
