Buyer questions, answered
Clear answers for preparing a comparable sourcing request for Disposable Sterile Hypodermic Needles.
What do hypodermic needle hub colors mean?
The hub color identifies the gauge so staff can pick the right size quickly. Under ISO 6009, for example, 21G is deep green, 22G black, 23G deep blue and 25G orange. Our needles are color-coded by size, and the color for each gauge is confirmed on your approved sample.
What are hypodermic needle sizes and their uses?
Gauge describes the outer diameter: the higher the number, the thinner the needle. Wider, lower-gauge needles are typically used to draw up or aspirate fluids, mid-range gauges for general intramuscular and intravenous injection, and the finest gauges for subcutaneous and intradermal injection. Our range covers 16G to 27G; the final choice depends on the drug and your clinical guidance.
Which hypodermic needle gauge is used for IM injection?
The gauge and length for intramuscular injection depend on the drug, the injection site, the patient and national guidance, so most buyers order the sizes named in their hospital or ministry of health protocol. Our range covers 16G to 27G; needle lengths are not listed on this page, so state the gauge and length pairs you need.
Are the needles blister packed or bulk packed?
Both are available. Blister packing keeps each needle sterile until use and suits retail and hospital channels; bulk packing is chosen by some kit assemblers and institutional buyers.
