What do needle gauge (G) and length (mm) mean?
The gauge (G) measures the needle’s thickness, while the length (mm) indicates how long it is.
A higher gauge means a thinner needle (e.g., 30G is thinner than 29G).
Choose the right combination based on your application or practitioner’s advice.
What is a fixed insulin syringe?
A fixed insulin syringe has the needle permanently attached to the barrel, reducing medication waste and improving injection accuracy. This design also minimizes the risk of needle detachment during use.
Why choose a fixed needle syringe for insulin?
Fixed insulin syringes have reduced dead space, meaning almost no insulin is left inside after injection. This ensures precise dosing and cost efficiency, especially important for regular insulin users.
Are your syringes CE marked and MHRA compliant?
Absolutely. All RayMed medical syringes are CE certified, MHRA compliant, and meet ISO standards for single-use sterile syringes.
What does 29G x 12.7mm mean?
This indicates the needle gauge and length — 29G refers to a fine, comfortable needle size, and 12.7mm is the standard length for subcutaneous insulin injections.
