Needle sizes

[Del_Piero]

I will be injecting sust and eq and have the following needles: 21G X 1 1/2, 23G x 1 1/4, 25G x 5/8. Which places in ur opinion u would use the above needle sizes. Thanx

no need for a 21 ga but glute for that and the 23, the 5/8's in the trash!

 

[Testopro one]

use the 23x1''1/4

 

[Del_Piero]

Fuck I didnt like the 21, it looks damn toooo big, 23 seems reasonable but I like the 25 better I guess I might like the bigger size after my 1st time

i use a 25g 1" pin for all my shots

23gx3cc x 1.5" Terumo best general size. Get 18g needles for drawing-goes faster and the 23 stays sharp

can someone explain gauges? i know some mean bigger, or smaller but how big or small can a guage be? how do you know what guage to use? is it the body part you inject?

glutes seem to be the sensible place to inject. what guage would you use there?

An insulin needle is about a 29g a vet harpoon might be an 18g

i used a 21 for quad injections. felt the same as 23g

the higher the guage number the thinner the needle. so 18 being the thickest and 29 being the skinniest.

my sugesstion is, 23 1 1/2 for glutes and 25 "1" for everthing else.

Gauge size depends on the substance you are injecting. Stuff like Winny tends to get stuck in larger gauge (therefore thinner) gauge needles. And it also can depend o nhow MUCH you are injecting. You don't want to have a thin needle (high gauge) and be injecting a lot of gear - might get clogged and will take a long time.

Length depends on the body part you are injecting into. You want to make sure the needle goes through the fat, and into the muscle. So length can also depend on how lean you are or aren't.

USUALLY, 5/8 can go in the Delt, Bi, Calves. 1 1/2 goes in the Glute and 1 in the Quad. But your mileage may vary.

yeah you're right

i acually had some winny that was getting clogged up in a 20 guage

it was 100mg/ml

Thanx guys!!!

25g 5/8 - go with that, or get 1'' inch for glutes

 

[Del_Piero]

25g 5/8 - go with that, or get 1'' inch for glutes

So I can use 25g 5/8 for every other part but not for glutes? BTW I am very lean, very low body fat - skinny if u wana call it
