Description
Dissecting needle with plastic handle, pointed and straight, 140 mm, is a precision laboratory instrument for fine preparation and separation work at the bench. The straight, pointed tip supports controlled manipulation of tissue, specimens and small sample structures during dissection, microscopy preparation and general laboratory handling. A lightweight plastic handle provides a secure, comfortable grip for extended sessions while keeping the overall instrument easy to manoeuvre. Overall length is 140 mm, giving a practical balance between reach and fingertip control in teaching labs, research facilities and routine sample preparation. Net weight is approximately 0,005 kg and gross weight about 0,011 kg, so the tool remains easy to store and transport within instrument trays. Supplied as a single piece from manufacturer Hammacher, this dissecting needle belongs to standard labware for biological and medical preparation tasks. It suits educational dissection courses, pathology support work and everyday specimen handling where a pointed, straight needle geometry is required. The plastic haft construction pairs a durable working tip with an insulated, non-metallic grip area for straightforward daily use in the laboratory environment.

Questions about Dissecting needle with plastic handle, sharp, straight, 140 mm
What is this article?
Dissecting needle with plastic handle, sharp, straight, 140 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hammacher for laboratory use. It sits in Needles & cannulas, inside Syringes & needles, in Lab consumables.
A needle or a cannula is specified by gauge, length and point, and by how it connects, Luer or cemented. A blunt needle is for transfer. A sharp needle is for piercing. Gauge is the outer diameter: a higher gauge is a thinner needle. The fitting has to match the syringe.
A syringe is a barrel and a piston. A disposable syringe is for transfer and injection. A microlitre syringe is a precise analytical tool, often with a cemented or removable needle, used to inject into a chromatograph. The needle gauge and the point, and the Luer or cemented connection, have to match the job. A Luer slip and a Luer lock are not the same fitting. In-vitro and diagnostic context is under ISO in vitro diagnostic systems.
