BD PrecisionGlide 18G x 1" Hypodermic Needle - 305195

The BD PrecisionGlide™ 18G x 1" Hypodermic Needle is crafted to meet the demands of procedures that require a balance between needle size and flow rate efficiency. Its 18-gauge size makes it an excellent choice for tasks involving thicker fluids or rapid fluid exchange, such as blood collection, IV infusions, or the administration of viscous medications. The 1-inch length provides adequate reach for intramuscular and intravenous injections without excessive penetration, ensuring patient comfort. The needle's three-bevel tip design further enhances patient comfort by reducing the trauma associated with insertion. Built from high-quality stainless steel, the needle is both strong and reliable, making it a trusted tool in various clinical settings. The color-coded hub and compatibility with Luer-Lok™ and Luer Slip syringes add to its ease of use and versatility.
