Multi-beveled point needle and syringe having a multi-beveled point needle

摘要: A syringe assembly including a needle cannula having five-beveled point and shield formed of styrene block poly(ethylene/butylene) thermoplastic elastomer which significantly reduces penetration force may reduce the cycle time for gas sterilization. The multi-beveled includes primary bevel, pair tip bevels middle each intermediate bevel respective wherein angles rotation are substantially equal resulting in reduced heights intercepts between bevels, therby reducing force. maintains sharpness during application, sterilization removal it is believed that will also as compared to rubber shields vulcanizate elastomers.
