Additional Information

Description

The intravenous catheter is structured with a polyurethane body that provides controlled flexibility, secure placement, and dependable performance for peripheral vascular access. Its 20-gauge diameter and 25.4 mm length support effective fluid administration while maintaining patient comfort during insertion and extended use. A radiopaque stripe enhances visibility under imaging, facilitating confirmation of position and aiding clinical assessment when required.

A universal bevel needle design with a refined back-cut geometry promotes smoother penetration and consistent vessel entry. The removable vented flashplug supports controlled flashback management during the initial insertion phase. Double flashback technology provides clear visual confirmation of successful vessel entry through both needle and catheter, reducing insertion attempts and improving procedural efficiency.

The catheter’s construction supports a flow rate of 65 mL per minute and maintains integrity under pressures up to 300 psi, enabling compatibility with a range of infusion protocols. The stainless-steel needle and straight plastic hub ensure stable handling and controlled advancement during placement. DEHP-free and latex-free materials align with standard clinical safety requirements and accommodate sensitive patient populations.
