NEEDLE EXTENDER 4" STERL BX/10: Design and Supply
The needle extender 4" sterl bx/10 sits in Sklar's needle extenders line, in the Sklar Sterile range. This instrument is used to extend the overall length of reach for a particular needled. This instrument is attached to the syringe and the needle is then connected to the extender, providing a needle that can access sites that standard needles may not reach. It is made of stainless steel / plastic. Because it is sterile and disposable, it goes from the package to the field and is discarded after the case, which keeps turnover simple.
