As a healthcare institution, your objectives are simple: remove conventional needles; provide safety-engineered alternatives; and manage costs. The BD Blunt Needle family allows you to meet these objectives:

Features Low penetration force Provides consistency Reduces access to Provides simplicity Lower cost than safety

Benefits Ease of use Standardized of application clinical practice Reduces risk of conventional needles needlesticks No change in technique Manage cost for institution Reduced cost for institution

Types of Needle Walls and Bevels

The Thin Wall needle is thinner than a Regular Wall needle. The inner diameter is bigger without any increase in the outside diameter. For example, a 21 G Thin Wall needle has the same outside diameter as a 21 G Regular Wall, but has the same inner diameter as a 20 G needle. Thin Wall allows the same flow volume as a Regular Wall needle one gauge larger.

305181 — Regular Wall

This is the most common wall thickness. The thickness of the steel wall allows a good flow rate, and minimizes flexing when the needle is inserted into a vial stopper or patient.

305181 — Blunt bevel

Blunt bevel: The blunt tip is used for injection into soft tissue and when a uniform solution distribution is needed. The beveled style is used for applications that involve the penetration of a tough tissue. A blunt fill needle is designed to reduce the potential for needlestick injuries.

Stainless Steel Needle

Made of stainless steel, which is siliconized to allow easier penetration, thus minimizing patient discomfort. Available in different lengths and gauges to suit individual clinical and patient needs.
