Self Inject 29G x 1/2" 1cc (Insulin Syringe) (Box of 100/ Case of 2000)

Product Sheet

Characteristics

• 1 ml capacity with an IU graduation (from 1 to 100)
The 1 ml insulin syringe, graduated in IU, is the standard in harm reduction (HR).
• A fixed needle and a low dead space.  lt is recommended to offer syringes with fixed needle as the first choice. They are referred to as "low dead space" syringes, with a dead space of less than 3 μL. The Selfinject's dead space is particularly low: 1 μL. The risk of viral transmission in the event of sharing is thus limited.
• A fixed but replaceable needle
If the needle is damaged or clogged, it can be replaced without transferring the content of the syringe into a new one. lndeed, the Selfinject has a fixed but replaceable needle, which avoids such handling by simply replacing the needle.
This also enables to dispose safely of the syringe after use, by removing the needle.
• Several needle sizes available
Offering this choice enables to respond to different injection practices. The thinnest needles (29G and 30G) are available first. The 25G, 26G, 27G and 28G needles will also be available later on.
• Optimal compatibility with Sterifilt® filters
Selfinject syringes are compatible with all Sterifilt® membrane filters. They fit onto the syringe in a single step. Press down until you hear a "click".

Assessment by PWID
When assessed by PWID, the following points were noted:
• Plunger: Flexible enough for a self-injection. The 1 ml stop is much appreciated.
• Needle: Penetrates the skin easily.
• Hub: The soft round end is considered less painful than cross-shaped ones.

RELATED ADVICE
+Syringes are for single use only and should never be shared. Sharing exposes to the risk of viral transmission (HIV, HVC).
+ To prevent infection risks, disinfect your hands before preparing the injection, disinfect the injection site with an alcohol swab, and never lick the needle.
