The ARK Textured Grabber® P Tube is a uniquely designed oral motor chew tool with a hollow, flexible body and textured surface – ideal for gentle chewing, jaw strengthening, and sensory regulation. Its "P" shaped loop makes it easy to hold and position, while the tube’s open core provides soft resistance that’s perfect for those needing a milder chew option.
This chew features three textured surfaces – smooth, bumpy, and ridged – to offer varied tactile feedback and oral stimulation. The hollow centre compresses when bitten, making it especially suitable for younger children, individuals with low oral tone, or those new to oral motor tools. It’s an excellent alternative to chewing on fingers, clothing, or pencils, promoting safe and calming self-regulation.
Designed by speech and occupational therapists, the Textured Grabber® P Tube supports a wide range of needs, including autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder, and feeding or speech therapy goals.
- Hollow design offers gentle resistance – ideal for mild chewers and oral motor beginners
- Triple texture zones stimulate oral awareness and provide sensory variety
- Helps build jaw strength, reduce anxiety, and encourage appropriate chewing behaviour
Caution: This product is not a toy.
Although the Ark chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Some individuals particularly those with strong oral sensory needs or who chew aggressively may be able to damage them in a short period of time. The lifespan of each tool depends on a variety of factors, including individual chewing intensity and whether the user is receiving support from an occupational therapist.
