Description
KF Needle (17/51/5) is a laboratory cannula specified as gauge G17 with a needle length of 51 mm, supplied in a practical pack of 6 pieces. The designation 17/51/5 identifies the outer diameter, working length and tip configuration used for controlled septum access in analytical and sample-handling workflows. Intended for piercing septa, the needle supports reliable penetration of vial closures, reaction vessels and other sealed systems where a defined gauge and length are required. Its G17 outer diameter balances mechanical strength with a workable bore for liquid transfer or gas-phase sampling after the septum has been pierced. The 51 mm length provides sufficient reach for common laboratory septa and headspace setups while remaining compact enough for routine bench use. These KF needles from manufacturer Hamilton are suited to chromatography sample introduction, titration accessories and general laboratory liquid handling where repeatable septum piercing is essential. Each pack contains six identical needles, supporting consistent replacement and parallel instrument setups without mixing gauges or lengths.
This article belongs on Needles & cannulas, in Syringes & needles.

Questions about KF NEEDLE (17/51/5) 6/pk
What is this article?
KF NEEDLE (17/51/5) 6/pk is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hamilton for laboratory use. It sits in Needles & cannulas, inside Syringes & needles, in Consommables.
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.
