The U-tube is the most commonly used tube in hearing aid earpieces worldwide. It is different from the intermediate hose of a hearing aid, because the U-hose is inserted in an earpiece that does not have a hook, which is common in Finland. The advantage of using a U-hose is that there are no connections in the sound canal as in a hooked earpiece. This allows the sound to be transmitted directly to the ear from the hearing aid without distractions.
