10-piece pack of professional 18G IV catheter needles. The 18G size is a versatile industry standard, perfectly suited for nostril, helix, tragus, and various other cartilage piercings. These needles feature a radiopaque cannula, providing an essential layer of professional safety by ensuring the catheter is visible under X-ray imaging.
The catheter-style system is designed to streamline the piercing process: once the ultra-sharp surgical steel needle creates the initial channel, it is withdrawn, leaving a flexible medical-grade sleeve in place. This allows for a seamless, "no-snag" transition when threading 18G jewelry, reducing client discomfort and minimizing tissue irritation.
