Hypodermic Stainless Tubes

Hypodermic Stainless Tubes

Hypodermic tubing is commonly used as the medium for introducing medicine or drugs under skin. Either as a method of injection or removal, hypodermic tubing allows for the rapid delivery of fluids. As a result, this type of stainless steel tubing is usually formed into hypodermic needles for medical applications. It is a slender, hollow, cylindrical length of stainless steel, typically SUS 316/SUS316L or SUS304 grade or 1.4301,1.4401,1.4404, with a puncturing point made at one end to form a needle.

Description

In terms of needle applications, there are a variety of diameters of hypodermic tubing that work best for certain requirements. For instance, large diameter hypodermic tubing are used for blood donation because the wideness of the needle allows for the removal of blood at a much quicker pace than would be allowed by an average or small diameter hypodermic tube. Small diameter hypodermic tubing, on the other hand, should not be used for blood donations because the small size of the needle will rupture the red blood cells and make the blood unable to be utilized by recipients. In addition to needle applications, hypodermic tubing is also utilized for spacers, hypodermic guide wires, cannulas and hypodermic capillary tubing in the medical, mechanical, electronic, chemical and aeronautical industries.

Hypodermic tubing is differentiated from other types of tubing by its own set of gauge sizes. For example, fractional tubing is measured by outside diameter and wall thickness, using common fraction sizes like 1/4″ outside diameter combined with a .035″ wall thickness. Hypodermic tubing comes in thin, regular and heavy wall varieties. Hypodermic tubing may be offered in 6″, 12″, 24″ or 36″ lengths. However, hypodermic tubing, or needle tubing, is categorized by gauges, which are determined by the outside diameter and the inside diameter of the tube. Hypodermic tubing can range from0.005″ to 0.259″ outside diameter and 0.002″ to 0.239″ inside diameter. Hypodermic tubing gauges are generally found numbered between 3 and 35, the smaller the number, the larger the diameters. For medical applications, the largest usable gauge size is 7, while the smallest usable gauge size is 33. Hypodermic tubing gauges are rooted in the Birmingham Gage, which is otherwise known as Stub’s Iron Wire Gage and also measures the thicknesses of pipes. Hypodermic tubing manufacturers should have gauge size charts available to assist in deciding which type of hypodermic tubing is needed for a specific application.

Hypodermic stainless steel tubes are found in a variety of medical and industrial applications. As the name implies, this particular type of tubing is known for its ease of cleanliness but also use. Most hypodermic needles are made of grade 304 stainless steel tubing, which allows for thin wall tubing that can be beveled and deburred to create a high-quality finish. Blunt needles used to pump tires, rafts, balls, and other inflatable equipments are also made from hypodermic stainless steel tubing. In addition, hypodermic tubing is measured differently than other stainless steel tubing. Size is determined by the gauge of the outside diameter and the inside diameter of the tube and ranges from 3 gauge to 33 gauge.
