NORM-JECT
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about NORM-JECT from 3G Electric.
What is the difference between NORM-JECT Luer Lock and Luer Slip syringes?
NORM-JECT Luer Lock syringes feature a threaded tip that securely locks the needle in place, preventing accidental detachment during use. This is ideal for applications involving high pressure or where the needle must remain firmly attached. NORM-JECT Luer Slip syringes have a smooth, tapered tip that allows needles to be pushed on and pulled off quickly. They are suitable for low-pressure applications and where frequent needle changes are required. Both types are available in 2 mL, 5 mL, 10 mL, and 20 mL capacities, with polypropylene barrels and tips and HDPE plungers.
Are NORM-JECT syringes sterile and individually packaged?
Yes, all NORM-JECT syringes are sterile and individually packaged in blister packs or peel-open pouches. This ensures that each syringe remains free from contamination until opened. The individual packaging also facilitates aseptic handling and reduces the risk of cross-contamination between uses. The sterility is maintained as long as the package remains intact. NORM-JECT syringes are intended for single use only and should be disposed of properly after use.
What materials are used in NORM-JECT syringes?
NORM-JECT syringes are constructed from polypropylene for the barrel and tip, and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) for the plunger. These materials are chosen for their chemical resistance, durability, and compatibility with a wide range of fluids. The all-plastic design eliminates the need for rubber gaskets or silicone lubricants, which can interact with sensitive fluids. The polypropylene barrel is transparent, allowing for clear visibility of the fluid contents and accurate measurement. The HDPE plunger provides a smooth, consistent glide during operation.
Can NORM-JECT syringes be used with any needle?
NORM-JECT syringes are compatible with standard sharp, tri-bevel needles that have a matching Luer connection. For Luer Lock syringes, use needles with a Luer Lock hub to ensure a secure threaded connection. For Luer Slip syringes, use needles with a Luer Slip hub that push onto the tapered tip. Needles are not included with the syringes and must be ordered separately. It is important to select the correct needle gauge and length for your specific application to ensure proper fit and function.
What are the typical applications for NORM-JECT syringes?
NORM-JECT syringes are used in medical, laboratory, and industrial settings for precise fluid measurement, transfer, and dispensing. In medical applications, they are used for administering medications, drawing blood, and irrigating wounds. In laboratories, they are used for sample preparation, reagent dispensing, and chromatography. In industrial settings, they are used for applying adhesives, lubricants, and other fluids, as well as for sampling and testing. The sterile, single-use design makes them suitable for applications where contamination control is critical.
