Cannulas and Needles
Clinics rely on consistent access to sterile access devices across services. The Cannulas and Needles category supports day-to-day venipuncture, medication prep, and procedure setup. Stock planning often benefits from standardization across teams and carts. Inventory on this site is shipped from the US to support predictable clinic operations. Use this hub to compare device formats, connection types, and labeling conventions.
Items are supplied for licensed clinical use through verified wholesale channels.
Cannulas and Needles Overview
This hub brings together common access devices used in outpatient and procedural settings. It also supports cross-referencing of device attributes seen on packaging. Many clinics review gauge, length, tip style, and connector type together. Teams may also track compatibility with syringes, extension sets, and transfer devices.
Some procedure lines bundle access components with the primary device. For example, thread systems may include an introducer cannula or needle. Related product pages can help teams confirm listed specifications, including gauge markers.

What You’ll Find in This Category
Browse device types that span routine injections and specialized procedural access. The range can include hypodermic needles, safety needles, and butterfly needles (winged infusion sets) for venous access workflows. It can also include blunt fill needles for vial draw-up and dispensing needles for compound transfer steps. Some clinics also stock irrigation cannula and suction cannula options for field management.
Clinics organizing carts for injectables often align device stock with the broader supply set. Pages for injectables, such as Botox and Nabota 100ui 1 Vial, can help teams map workflows. Thread lift systems may also list included introducer components, such as Silhouette Soft 16 and Intraline Cog. This category also supports procurement teams who need consistent labeling across Cannulas and Needles line items.
- Venipuncture needles and phlebotomy needles for blood draws and access starts
- Catheter introducer needle formats paired with peripheral IV workflows
- Microcannula (small flexible cannula) options used in select procedures
- Spinal needles, aspiration needles, and biopsy needles in specialized kits
How to Choose
Start with the clinical workflow and the device interface. Then align labeling to internal protocols and tray maps. Keep the selection criteria consistent across teams and locations. Use Cannulas and Needles listings to confirm size conventions and connector styles.
Key selection criteria
- Intended use: injection, infusion, transfer, aspiration, irrigation, or suction
- Needle length and gauge, including how packaging states the range
- Needle tip style: standard bevel, safety-engineered, or blunt fill
- Cannula characteristics: rigid versus flexible, and straight versus curved
- Connector: luer lock needles versus slip-tip requirements for the setup
- Single use cannulas labeling and sterile barrier integrity statements
- Latex status, DEHP statements, or other facility policy requirements
- Packaging format: unit dose packs versus multi-pack clinic boxes
Quick tip: Keep a printed needle gauge chart near receiving for fast checks.
For thread-based procedures, confirm the listed gauge on the introducer component. Examples include Intraline PDO Triple TR2650 and Intraline PDO Dimension 360. Educational context pages can also help teams align terminology, such as What Are PDO Threads.
Stock is sourced from vetted distributors to support traceable supply chains.
Safety and Use Notes
Follow the device IFU and facility policy for handling and disposal. Maintain aseptic technique and protect sterile fields during setup. Treat damaged packaging, compromised seals, or unclear labeling as nonconforming. Document lot and expiry data per internal quality requirements. Apply these basics consistently across Cannulas and Needles items.
Needlestick and sharps considerations
- Use sharps containers that match procedure volume and placement needs
- Standardize pass-off practices to reduce hand-to-hand sharps exchange
- Consider safety-engineered devices where policies require them
- Segregate blunt fill needles from injection needles in storage bins
Why it matters: Sharps incidents can interrupt staffing and compliance workflows.
Use authoritative references when updating clinic safety policies. For injection safety principles, see CDC Injection Safety guidance. For workplace controls, review OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens resources. For procedure context, teams may also review Thread Lift Risks to support internal training discussions.
Listings emphasize brand-name products intended for professional clinical environments.
Clinic Ordering and Compliance Notes
Ordering is restricted to licensed clinics and credentialed healthcare professionals.
Facilities should align purchasing to internal protocols and state requirements. Maintain records for device traceability, including lot, expiry, and receiving logs. Store sterile needles and packaged cannulas per labeled conditions and facility policy. Review compatibility across syringes, transfer devices, and sharps disposals before standardizing. Cannulas and Needles selection decisions should also reflect infection-control and occupational-safety programs.
- Account verification may be required before release of restricted items

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I interpret needle gauge and length listings?
Gauge describes outer diameter, and higher numbers mean thinner needles. Length is usually shown in inches or millimeters on packaging. Some listings also include wall type or bevel style, depending on the device. Clinics should standardize which formats appear on internal preference cards. Use packaging images and manufacturer labeling to confirm how a given SKU states its dimensions. Avoid assuming equivalence across brands when nomenclature differs.
What is the difference between a cannula and a needle?
A needle is typically rigid, sharp, and designed to pierce tissue or vial stoppers. A cannula is often a tube that may be flexible or blunt, depending on use. Some cannulas function as introducers for other devices, while others support irrigation or suction. Clinics often compare intended use, tip design, and compatibility with connectors. When unsure, rely on the manufacturer IFU and the facility’s standardized device list.
When should a clinic consider safety-engineered needles?
Many facilities evaluate safety-engineered needles to align with occupational safety programs. These devices may include shielding or retraction features intended to reduce sharps exposure. Selection usually depends on procedure type, staff workflow, and policy requirements. Training and consistent use matter as much as device choice. Clinics should document evaluation criteria and update preference cards accordingly. Follow applicable workplace regulations and the manufacturer instructions for activation and disposal.
What does luer lock compatibility mean for needles and syringes?
Luer lock indicates a threaded connection that helps secure a needle or device to a compatible syringe or fitting. It differs from slip-tip connections, which rely on friction fit. Clinics should match connector type across syringes, extension sets, and transfer devices to prevent leaks or disconnections. Listings may also note hub style or dead space characteristics. Confirm connector requirements for each procedure cart and keep mixed types clearly separated in storage.
What documentation is typically required for wholesale access to clinical supplies?
Wholesale suppliers commonly request clinic licensure details and shipping information before fulfillment. Some product lines may require additional credential verification, depending on the item category. Facilities should keep records current to avoid delays in processing. Many clinics also maintain internal receiving documentation, including lot and expiry data for traceability. Requirements vary by jurisdiction and supplier policy, so compliance teams should align submissions with local rules and internal SOPs.
