Key Features

Enhanced safety needle with one-way 5 micron filter, designed to reduce risk of needlestick injury and particulate contamination when drawing up medication, particularly from snap-top glass ampule or vials

  • Cost-effective alternative to conventional sharps
  • Minimises risk of needlestick injury during medication preparation - blunt tip requires 9-10x more force to puncture skin than conventional needle
  • 45 ° bevel enhances patient safety by preventing rubber fragments being "cored" from stoppers and contaminating the injection fluid
  • 5-micron filter ensures additional risk reduction by filtering out stray contaminant particles, including glass slivers from snap-top glass vials and ampules
  • Large 18 gauge enables fast filling, even with viscous fluids
  • Not suitable for direct patient injection
  • Free from latex, phthalates, PVC
  • Sterile, single-use
