BD PrecisionGlide 16 G x 1-1/2 Hypodermic Needles - 305198

The BD PrecisionGlide™ 16G x 1-1/2" Hypodermic Needle is engineered for scenarios that require a combination of a larger bore and extended reach. Its 16-gauge size is perfect for high-flow procedures such as blood transfusions or the aspiration of fluids, where rapid fluid exchange is necessary. The 1-1/2 inch length offers added depth, making it suitable for intramuscular injections in larger muscle groups or for accessing deeper veins. Despite its size, the needle's three-bevel tip design ensures a smoother, less painful insertion experience. Constructed from durable stainless steel, this needle maintains its integrity during use. The compatibility with Luer-Lok™ and Luer Slip syringes adds versatility, making it a reliable choice in various medical environments.

Features & Benefits:

• Gauge (G): 16G, a large bore needle, making it ideal for procedures that require quick fluid delivery, such as blood transfusions, large volume injections, or aspiration of fluids.
• Length: 1-1/2 inches (approximately 38 mm), providing additional reach for deeper intramuscular or intravenous procedures.
• Bevel Design: Features a three-bevel tip that is engineered to minimize patient discomfort and reduce tissue trauma during insertion, even with the larger gauge.
• Stainless Steel: Constructed from high-quality stainless steel for durability, resistance to bending, and reliability during use.
• Color-Coded: The hub is color-coded for easy identification of the gauge size, with the 16G needle typically featuring a white-colored hub.
• Luer-Lok™/Luer Slip Compatibility: The needle is compatible with both Luer-Lok™ and Luer Slip syringes, ensuring a secure connection during use.
• The thin wall design allows for a larger inner diameter, which enhances fluid flow rates. This is particularly beneficial in emergency settings or procedures where rapid administration of fluids is critical.
• Individually Packaged: Each needle is individually packaged to maintain sterility until use.
• Single Use: Designed for single use to prevent cross-contamination and ensure patient safety.
