- Commonly used in medical and veterinary settings
Uses
- Blood Sampling:
- The 18G needle and 10mL capacity are suitable for drawing larger volumes of blood for laboratory tests or donor units
- Injecting Viscous Fluids:
- The wider bore of the 18G needle makes it suitable for the injection of thicker or higher-viscosity medications or solutions that might be difficult with a finer gauge needle
- Intravenous (IV) Therapy:
- Used for certain intravenous applications and infusion therapy
- Aspiration:
- Safely withdrawing various bodily fluids or aspirating liquids from tissues
- Surgical Procedures:
- Can be used in specific surgical applications like fat injection and aspiration
- Laboratory/Industrial Use:
- While primarily medical grade, similar specifications are used in laboratory or industrial settings for dispensing liquids or adhesives where precision and volume are needed
Features
- Luer-Lock Mechanism:
- The main feature is the threaded tip, which allows the needle to be securely twisted and locked into place
- This creates a reliable, leak-proof seal that prevents accidental disconnection, even under higher pressure
- Large Capacity:
- A 10mL (10cc) barrel capacity is suitable for procedures requiring larger volumes of fluid administration or withdrawal
- Optimal Needle:
- The 18-gauge x 1-inch needle is robust (wider bore) and comes with a pink color-coded hub for easy identification
- Low Dead Space:
- Features a plunger design that minimizes residual fluid left in the syringe after use, ensuring accurate dosing and reducing medication waste
- Visibility and Accuracy:
- The barrel is crystal clear with bold, easy-to-read markings/graduations to ensure precise measurement
- Smooth Plunger Motion:
- Designed with siliconized gaskets for a smooth and consistent plunger action, allowing for controlled administration
- Positive Plunger Stop:
- Includes a mechanism that prevents the plunger from being accidentally pulled completely out, avoiding spillage
- Safety and Sterility:
- It is sterile, non-toxic, non-pyrogenic (fever-inducing substances are absent), and natural rubber latex-free, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions and contamination
