Description
The Allison CarePoint Safety Needle turns any Luer Lock syringe in the drawer into a safety device, with a hinged shield that snaps over the sharp by forefinger, thumb or hard surface. Facilities can upgrade sharps protection without replacing their syringe stock or retraining the injection routine.

- Gauges – 25G x 1 inch, 23G x 1 inch and 23G x 1 1/2 inch
- Fit – Luer Lock configurations
- Packaging – 50 per box, 16 boxes per case
About This Safety Needle
Standalone safety needles solve the mixed inventory problem: the syringe brand on the shelf stays, and the safety upgrade arrives at the needle. The CarePoint safety needle is UV bonded at the hub for stability, sealed in an individual sterile package, and built to the ISO 7886-1 and ISO 10993 references in the manufacturer data sheet.
Three configurations cover the common injection gauges, 25G x 1 inch for fine work and 23G in 1 inch and 1 1/2 inch lengths for standard intramuscular delivery. Activation needs no second hand and no container within reach, because the shield can be pressed against any hard surface. Used needles should be dropped into a sharps container immediately after activation.

Manuals and Troubleshooting Guides
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the shield activated?
The hinged shield activates by forefinger, by thumb or against a hard surface, so it can be closed one handed right after withdrawal. The used needle should then go straight into a sharps container.
Which syringes do these needles fit?
The needles are offered in Luer Lock configurations, which seat on standard Luer Lock syringe tips. Check the option label for the gauge and length of each configuration.
Are the needles sterile?
Safety needles are sterile and sealed in individual packages at the factory. Each case holds 16 boxes of 50 needles.
What gauges are offered?
Configurations cover 25G x 1 inch, 23G x 1 inch and 23G x 1 1/2 inch. A 25G x 5/8 inch configuration exists in the line but is not part of this listing.
Is this the genuine CarePoint safety needle?
Each configuration is listed under its Allison Medical item number from the 32 series, as documented in the manufacturer data sheet. Needles arrive in original manufacturer packaging through the authorized distributor.
