Medline Blunt Fill Needle 18G × 1½ in | ConceptASR

Medline blunt fill needle for syringe preparation

The Medline blunt fill needle is designed to draw medication and other solutions from vials during syringe preparation. Its 18G size supports efficient filling, while its 1½-inch (3.81 cm) length provides convenient access to the contents of various vial sizes.

Unlike a conventional hypodermic needle used for injection, this device has a blunt tip. It is intended for filling and transferring solutions and must not be used to administer an injection to a patient.

Its blunt design allows healthcare professionals to prepare syringes without handling a sharp hypodermic point during the filling process. It is also designed to help prevent vial-stopper coring, which can occur when a fragment of the stopper is accidentally dislodged during puncture.

Compatible with standard Luer-lock syringes

The Medline sterile blunt fill needle works with most standard Luer-lock syringes. The Luer-lock connection helps secure the needle to a compatible syringe before the solution is withdrawn.

This compatibility makes it a practical supply for medical clinics, podiatry practices, nursing services, home healthcare providers and other professional settings where medication or solutions are prepared from vials.

Once the syringe has been filled, the blunt fill needle must be removed. When administration is required, an appropriate needle must be selected and installed by a qualified professional according to the procedure and medication involved.

Designed to help prevent vial-stopper coring

Coring occurs when a small piece of a vial stopper is cut or dislodged while it is being punctured. The blunt-tip design of this Medline fill needle helps reduce this possibility during solution withdrawal.

This feature makes the needle especially useful in clinical environments where medications are regularly drawn from compatible vials.

This non-filtered model should not be confused with SYR110022F, which includes an integrated 5-micron filter. The appropriate model should be selected according to the container, solution and applicable professional protocol.

Sterile and single-use

Each needle is supplied sterile and is intended for one-time use. Using a new needle for every preparation helps reduce the risk of cross-contamination and supports established infection-control procedures.

The needle comes with a protective cap that helps protect it before use and reduce the possibility of damage or accidental contact during handling.

The individual package should be inspected before use. The product must not be used if its packaging is open, damaged or appears compromised.

Following use, the needle must be discarded according to the healthcare facility’s procedures and all applicable requirements for medical devices and sharps.
