- Commonly used in medical and veterinary settings
Uses
- Blood Sampling:
- The 20G needle is a common size for venipuncture and drawing blood samples
- Intramuscular (IM) Injections:
- The 1-inch needle length is suitable for many intramuscular injections in adult patients
- Aspiration:
- Safely withdrawing various bodily fluids in a controlled manner
- Injecting Viscous Fluids:
- The 20G needle gauge facilitates the injection of slightly thicker or more viscous medications/solutions
- Laboratory and Industrial Use:
- Used for general fluid management, measuring, and transferring liquids where a large volume capacity and secure connection 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 Specifications:
- The 20-gauge x 1-inch stainless steel needle provides a medium-to-wide bore suitable for moderate viscosity fluids and various injection depths
- Low Dead Space:
- The plunger is designed to minimize the amount of residual fluid remaining 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
