Frequently Asked Questions
What gauge is this insulin needle?
This needle is 31 gauge (31g), an ultra-fine gauge designed to further minimise pain and tissue trauma compared to standard 30g needles — a popular choice for insulin-dependent patients and clinics prioritising patient comfort.
What is the needle length?
The needle is 6mm in length, suitable for subcutaneous injections in most adult patients. Needle length selection should be guided by clinical assessment of the individual patient.
Is this needle latex free?
Yes. These insulin needles are 100% latex free, making them safe for patients and clinicians with latex sensitivities.
Is this needle CE marked?
Yes. CE marked under Notified Body 0297 and MHRA registered, with UK Responsible Person (UKRP) Advena Ltd.
Can this needle be reused?
No. These are single-use needles only. Reuse increases infection risk, causes tip blunting, and is contrary to clinical best practice and MHRA guidance.
How many needles are in a box?
Each box contains 100 individually wrapped, sterile needles.
What is the difference between 30g and 31g insulin needles?
A higher gauge number means a finer, narrower needle. The 31g needle has a slightly finer tip than a 30g, which can reduce injection discomfort. Both are widely used for insulin administration — selection should be based on individual patient preference and clinical guidance.
