Veterinary Side-Hole Needle

Veterinary Side-Hole Needle

This side-hole veterinary needle is engineered to support controlled delivery and collection with reduced tissue irritation. The side-hole geometry is intended to help distribute flow more gently compared with standard tip delivery in applicable scenarios.

According to the manufacturer, the needle body is made from premium 304 stainless steel and is offered with hub options such as brass or stainless steel, providing stable connections and dependable handling in professional settings.

It is positioned for multi-species use across livestock and aquaculture, supporting routine injections, vaccinations, and fluid sampling where minimizing trauma and maintaining consistent flow are priorities. For teams that use the same platform across multiple barns or sites, the side-hole format can help reduce variability in fluid delivery during sensitive procedures.

Key benefits

• Side-hole design supports smoother flow and reduced trauma
• 304 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance and durability
• High-precision manufacturing for predictable injections and extractions
• Compatible with a wide range of syringes and injection systems
• Supplied sterile and ready for professional use (per manufacturer)

Typical applications

• Livestock injections (medications, vaccines, nutrients for cattle, sheep, pigs and similar)
• Fluid extraction and sampling (blood or other biological fluids) with controlled handling
• Aquaculture use for disease prevention and treatment protocols
• Specialized veterinary procedures where minimizing tissue impact is a requirement
• High-throughput farm and clinic operations that need consistent outcomes

Materials and construction

• Needle: premium 304 stainless steel (corrosion resistant; retains sharpness; easy to clean)
• Hub: brass or stainless steel (secure, stable syringe connection)
• Design: side-hole configuration aimed at reducing irritation during use

Handling and hygiene guidance

• Use sterile technique and follow clinic protocols for injections and sampling.
• Dispose of sharps safely and do not recap needles unless your SOP requires a safe method.
• Confirm compatibility with your syringe type before large-scale operations.

Selection and use considerations

• Select gauge/length based on the animal and the procedure, and follow veterinary guidance for injection sites.
• Use appropriate restraint and safe handling to protect both staff and animals during dosing and sampling.
• Maintain a clean field and follow sharps-safety protocols to reduce contamination and injury risk.
