BD Microlance 3 Needles 18G × 1.5" (Pack of 100) – Hypodermic Needles

The BD Microlance 3 Needles 18G × 1.5" (Pack of 100) are sterile, single-use hypodermic needles manufactured by Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD). Designed for clinical applications requiring dependable needle performance, these needles are suitable for selected fluid aspiration, medication preparation, and fluid transfer procedures.

The BD Microlance 3 range features precision-engineered needle tips designed to support smooth penetration and controlled handling during appropriate medical procedures. The needles are manufactured with stainless steel cannulas and protective needle caps to help maintain product integrity before use.

The 18-gauge (18G) needle has a relatively large bore compared with higher-gauge needles such as 21G, 23G, and 25G. This configuration is suitable for selected medical applications where a wider needle lumen is required for fluid withdrawal or transfer.

The 1.5-inch needle length, equivalent to approximately 38mm, provides a defined working length for clinical procedures requiring this needle size.

The BD Microlance 3 18G × 1.5" needle is designed for attachment to compatible syringes and other appropriate medical devices. Its needle hub provides a connection point for secure attachment when used with a compatible syringe fitting.

Each needle is supplied for single use, helping healthcare facilities maintain appropriate infection prevention practices and reduce risks associated with needle reuse.

The pack of 100 needles provides a convenient quantity for hospitals, clinics, laboratories, pharmacies, and other healthcare facilities requiring disposable hypodermic needles for routine clinical operations.

The BD Microlance 3 18G × 1.5" needles are intended for use by qualified healthcare professionals following appropriate clinical protocols, aseptic techniques, and sharps disposal procedures.
