Specifies requirements for standard and thin-walled stainless steel needle tubing, ranging in size from 0.31 mm to 2 mm in nominal external diameter (30 SWG-14 SWG) for standard tubing and from 0.45 mm to 2 mm in nominal external diameter (26 SWG-14 SWG) for thin-walled tubing. The needle tubing is suitable for use in the manufacture of hypodermic needles or other hypodermic devices for medical, dental and veterinary use. Appendices include method of test for mechanical properties of the needle tube.

This standard specifies requirements for standard and thin-walled stainless steel needle tubing, ranging in size from 0.31 mm to 2.00 mm in nominal external diameter (30 SWG-14 SWG) for standard tubing and from 0.45 mm to 2.00 mm in nominal external diameter (26 SWG-14 SWG) for thin-walled tubing. The needle tubing is suitable for use in the manufacture of hypodermic needles or other hypodermic devices for medical, dental and veterinary use. Although the tubing may be supplied mounted or unmounted, this standard does not include requirements for the mount.NOTE: Advisory information on sampling and assessing for compliance with this standard is given in Appendix E.
