Highly Detectable Needles
HDN - 10 Advantages
4 Proactive Features (reduces risk of losing needle)
Superior Strength*
Stronger than traditional needles.
Strong Hub Connection
HDN softer metal allows an easier and deeper grip at the hub. This helps reduce the risk of the needle dislodging from the hub during use.
Improved Bend Test Results
HDN needles will withstand more bending than traditional needles on the market prior to breaking. This should reduce the chance of the needle breaking away from the hub during injection.
Hard to Straighten
HDN needles are designed to bend not only at the hub, but also throughout the cannula in a curved manner. This type of bend is more diffcult to straighten and as a result discourages re-straightening of the needles for reuse.
1 Reactive Feature (increases chance of finding lost needle)
Ultra High Detectability*
HDN needles are designed to be one of the most detectable needles on the market.
5 Other Quality Features
Greater Ductility**
HDN needles are less brittle than other needles on the market. This is designed to reduce stress at the injection site.
Super Sharp Needle
Penetrates skin without undue resistance or stress to animal.
Thicker Needle Wall
Reduces needle tip burring.
Color Coded Box and Color Coded Needle Cartridge
Easy identification of appropriate size needle. Idividually sterilized and packaged.
Luer-lock Aluminum Hub
Fits most vaccinating guns. Strength and Durability.
* Based on independent field test conducted by Dr. Steven Hoff of Iowa State University. Tested to 79.8 lbs using 16 gauge comparisons.
** More ductile than traditional 16, 18, and 20 gauge needles.
