Technical Specifications

Hub Color: Blue (Standardized color for 25-gauge needles)
Materials: Stainless steel needle with a clear plastic hub
Sterility: Sterile, single-use, non-pyrogenic
Key Design Features
Quincke Bevel: The sharp, medium-length cutting edge is designed to provide maximum tactile feedback. This allows the clinician to "feel" the transition through different tissue layers, such as the ligamentum flavum.
Matched Metal Stylet: Every needle is equipped with a precision-fitted metal stylet that sits flush against the bevel. This design prevents tissue coring (the accidental entry of skin or fat into the needle lumen) and provides the necessary rigidity for accurate steering.
Transparent Hub: The hub is manufactured from clear, medical-grade plastic. This allows for the immediate visualization of CSF "flashback," confirming that the needle has successfully entered the subarachnoid space.
Removable Wings: This model features removable wings, giving the practitioner the flexibility to choose between a winged or non-winged grip depending on the patient's anatomy or the specific procedural requirements.
