Description
Sterican® disposable needles, 18G × 40 mm, are single-use cannulas for laboratory syringe work and liquid-handling applications. The red hub denotes this 18-gauge configuration, paired with a 40 mm needle length for access into taller vials, bottles and process vessels. Unlike blunt-bevel variants, this type features a cut semi-blunt tip geometry, offering a distinct penetration profile for septa and closures encountered in sample preparation. Supplied in packs of 100 pc(s), the needles help laboratories maintain consistent gauge, length and tip style across repeated transfer steps. These Sterican® cannulas from manufacturer B. Braun complement standard laboratory syringes used in wet chemistry, aliquoting and general liquid movement. The 18G bore supports efficient flow during dispensing and aspiration of many laboratory liquids. Pack weight is approximately 0,200 kg, convenient for storage with other syringe accessories. Use this red 18G × 40 mm Sterican® needle when a longer cannula with cut semi-blunt tip geometry is specified for routine laboratory cannula and liquid-handling duties.
This article is part of Needles & cannulas, in Syringes & needles.

Questions about Sterican® disposable needles, 18G x 40mm, Red, cut semi-blunt, 100 unit(s)
What is this article?
Sterican® disposable needles, 18G x 40mm, Red, cut semi-blunt, 100 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes B. Braun 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.
