Safety Scalp Vein Set with Flexible Wings and Luer Lock Connector – Multiple Gauge Sizes Available (100 Pcs)

A scalp vein set, also known as a butterfly needle or winged infusion set, is a medical device designed for venipuncture—accessing a vein for intravenous injections or blood sampling. Its design facilitates precise placement, especially in patients with small or fragile veins, such as pediatric or geriatric patients.

Key Features:

• Needle: A short, thin-walled stainless steel hypodermic needle, often siliconized to minimize insertion resistance.

• Wings: Two flexible, bilateral wings attached to the needle hub allow for a secure grip and precise control during insertion.

• Tubing: Transparent, flexible tubing, typically 20–35 cm in length, connects the needle to a connector, providing flexibility and reducing the risk of needle dislodgement.

• Connector: A standard female Luer connector at the end of the tubing enables attachment to syringes, vacuum tube holders, or IV infusion lines.

Specifications:

• Gauge Sizes: Available in various gauges, commonly ranging from 18 to 27 gauge, with 21G and 23G being most prevalent.

• Color Coding: Wings are color-coded for easy identification of needle gauge sizes.

• Safety Features: Some models include safety mechanisms, such as a sliding sheath, to cover the needle after use, reducing the risk of needlestick injuries.
