21G x 38mm Sterile Hypodermic Needles

21G x 38mm Sterile Hypodermic Needles

21G x 38mm Sterile Hypodermic Needles are single-use clinical needles designed for intramuscular injection where greater penetration depth is required — typically for adult patients or those with higher BMI. The 21-gauge diameter accommodates a wide range of injectable medications while maintaining patient comfort.

What is it?

A 21 gauge, 38mm sterile single-use hypodermic needle with a precision-ground bevel. Designed for reliable IM injection into gluteal, deltoid, and vastus lateralis muscle groups.

Who is it for?

Nurses, doctors, and clinical staff in hospitals, clinics, and community health settings administering IM medications, vaccines, and depot injections to adult patients.

Why it matters?

Correct needle length ensures medication reaches the muscle layer rather than depositing subcutaneously. This is particularly important for depot formulations and vaccines where the injection site affects drug absorption rate and efficacy.
