Veterinary procedures often require specialized tools that meet the unique anatomical and procedural demands of animals. Our custom veterinary needles are manufactured using medical-grade stainless steel and designed to meet your specifications for size, flexibility, delivery method, and safety. NEST fabricates custom and standard stainless steel dosing needles, feeding, and gavage needles. These veterinary needles may be used in a laboratory setting when working with small animals.
We also form and fabricate several different tools, probes, and diagnostic tubular parts for many major veterinary diagnostics OEMs.
Gavage needles are essential in animal research, neonatal care, and recovery situations, where precise and consistent nutrient or medication delivery is critical. Stainless steel veterinary feeding needles have a “barrel” shaped tip. This barrel shaped tip is designed to prevent injury to the animal by ensuring no sharp edges contact soft tissues.
NEST currently offers veterinary needles in straight, bent, and straight malleable format. Blunt tip, barrel or ball tip designs for oral or esophageal feeding, with options for curved shafts and luer-lock fittings. We will fabricate and assemble custom needle versions if an application requires it. Each needle variation is also available in different lengths and standard hypodermic tube sizes to accommodate any application. These stainless steel veterinary needles are reusable and autoclavable.
Custom veterinary needle assemblies and design and fabrication requirements can be accommodated. Please call us today, email [email protected] or submit an attachment on our Request A Quote form today to discuss your project with a Sales team member.
