Sharp Needles (hypodermic syringes needles)

Generic

Medical device / hypodermic needle
  • Manufactured to comply with international standards for hypodermic needles (e.g. ISO 7864 / national equivalents) according to supplier documentation. ([supplier spec sheets])
  • Color‑coded according to standard gauge identification (ISO 6009 or equivalent). ([supplier descriptions])
Disposable hypodermic/ injection needles

Description

Disposable hypodermic needles made from high‑quality stainless steel, featuring a large internal diameter (ID) for high flow, a semi‑transparent needle hub for blood reflux observation, and a sharp needle‑point designed for smooth puncture, minimal tissue trauma, and reduced pain. Available in a range of gauges, lengths, and supply formats (bulk or blister‑packed, sterilized or unsterile), and color‑coded hub for size identification.

Bnefits

  • High‑quality stainless steel construction for strength, corrosion resistance, and reliability. ([hypodermic needle manufacturers descriptions])
  • Large internal diameter and high flow allow efficient fluid delivery or withdrawal. ([supplier descriptions])
  • Semi‑transparent hub facilitates observation of blood reflux, aiding correct needle placement. ([supplier descriptions])
  • Sharpened, smooth bevel tip reduces puncture pain and tissue damage. ([supplier descriptions])
  • Color‑coded hub for easy gauge/size recognition. ([supplier / industry standard ISO 6009 colour‑coding])
  • Flexible supply formats — bulk or blister pack, sterilized or non‑sterilized, various sizes/gauges. ([supplier descriptions])

Indications

  • Intramuscular, subcutaneous or intravenous injections of medications or fluids
  • Blood sampling / phlebotomy
  • Any medical procedure requiring sterile needle access (injections, fluid extraction, vaccinations, dermal or aesthetic injections)

Composition

  • Cannula / needle: stainless steel (SUS 304 or equivalent medical‑grade stainless steel). ([disposable needle suppliers information])
  • Needle hub: medical‑grade polypropylene (or other biocompatible medical‑grade polymer), semi‑transparent. ([hypodermic needle product specs])

Formulation

  • Single‑use hollow needle with Luer‑lock / slip hub connection; standard hypodermic needle format.

Packaging

  • Individually blister‑packed or bulk pack, depending on supply option. ([supplier descriptions])
  • Some variants supplied sterile (EO sterilized) in tamper‑evident, medical‑grade packaging. ([sterile needle spec sheets])

Usage

  • Use only once; check integrity of sterile packaging before use. ([manufacturer instructions])
  • Attach securely to a compatible syringe or injection system (Luer‑lock / slip).
  • Insert needle at appropriate anatomical site under aseptic conditions, administer or withdraw fluid as clinically indicated.
  • Dispose immediately after use in a sharps container; do not reuse. ([standard medical‑device safety guidelines])

Contraindications

  • Do not use if packaging seal is broken or compromised (sterility lost). ([sterile needle guidance])
  • Avoid use if there is known hypersensitivity to any material (e.g. plastics of hub, stainless steel) — though rare.

Adverse Effects

  • Potential for injection‑site pain, bleeding, bruising, infection, or local irritation if asepsis not maintained. (Risks common to hypodermic needle use.)

Storage Conditions

  • Store in a clean, dry, cool environment.
  • Keep in original sealed packaging until use, away from moisture and extreme heat. ([sterile needle storage guidance])
