Description
Ultra-Fine Insulin Syringes 6mm carry the shortest needle in the embecta syringe range, a 31G needle made to reach the subcutaneous layer and stay out of muscle. The Veo packaging format suits users who draw doses from a vial at home or in clinic teaching settings. Three barrel sizes include a half-unit scale option for small, precise doses.
- 6mm Short Needle – The shortest embecta syringe needle lowers intramuscular injection risk for lean users and children
- Three Barrel Sizes – Pick 1 mL, 1/2 mL or 3/10 mL barrels matched to the user's dose range
- Half-Unit Scale Option – The 3/10 mL half-unit barrel supports fine dose adjustments for small total doses
- Veo Packaging – Supplied in the Veo format in cases of 500 syringes for program stocking
The Shortest Syringe Needle embecta Makes
Syringe users drawing from a vial need the same subcutaneous accuracy that pen users get from short pen needles. The 6mm needle on this line closes the gap, delivering into subcutaneous tissue with less chance of hitting muscle. Barrel size matters as much as needle length, because a barrel close to the dose size makes the scale easier to read. The 3/10 mL barrels serve smaller doses, and one carries half-unit markings for the fine adjustments common in pediatric and insulin-sensitive dosing. The permanently attached needle removes a separate needle-handling step from the draw-up routine. Diabetes programs stocking vial-and-syringe supplies use this case format to keep teaching and home supplies identical.

Why Choose the Ultra-Fine Insulin Syringes 6mm
Vial users were long left with longer syringe needles after pen users moved to 4mm and 5mm formats. This line brings the same short-needle logic to syringe draw-up, with barrel choices that keep the scale readable.
- Better Depth Control – A 6mm needle reaches subcutaneous tissue reliably, which keeps absorption consistent
- Readable Dosing – Matching barrel size to dose size, plus a half-unit option, reduces reading errors on small doses
- Same Supplies Everywhere – Unlike mixed sourcing, one case format covers teaching clinics and home supply with identical syringes
Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose a 6mm syringe needle?
Shorter needles deliver into the subcutaneous layer with less risk of intramuscular injection. That consistency matters most for lean adults, children and anyone with variable sites.
What does the half-unit scale help with?
Half-unit markings let users measure small doses more precisely on the 3/10 mL barrel. It is commonly used for children and insulin-sensitive adults.
Which barrel size fits which dose?
The 3/10 mL barrel doses up to 30 units, the 1/2 mL up to 50 units and the 1 mL up to 100 units. A barrel close to the usual dose makes the scale easier to read.
How are the syringes packed?
The case holds 500 syringes in five packs of 100. This listing sells the full case in Veo packaging.
Are these for U-100 insulin only?
Yes, the barrels are graduated for U-100 insulin. Using them with other concentrations would misstate the dose.
