Veterinary needle 18G

Description

Purpose: Primarily used for animal blood collection, suitable for various domestic livestock such as cows, sheep, pigs, etc.

Specification: The 18G refers to the size of the needle’s outer diameter. The higher the number, the thinner the needle, which causes relatively less harm to animals and results in less bleeding, conducive to wound recovery.

Types: May include straight needles or pen-type lancets, among others, with the appropriate type selected based on different usage requirements.

Accessories: May require use in conjunction with specific vacuum collection tubes or other auxiliary tools to facilitate operation and sample collection.

Applicability: Different sizes of animals may require needles of different lengths and specifications. For example, pigs weighing between 10-100 kg commonly use needle lengths of 0.75-1.25 inch, with needle gauge numbers of 18.
