SafetyGlide™ Insulin Syringe with Needle, 0.3 mL, 29G x 1/2" - Box of 100
0.3 mL Safety-Engineered Insulin Syringe with Permanently Attached 29-Gauge Needle

The SafetyGlide™ 0.3 mL Insulin Syringe is a safety-engineered device designed to protect healthcare professionals and caregivers from accidental needlestick and sharps injuries during and after insulin administration. Formerly manufactured under the Becton Dickinson/BD brand, this syringe is now produced by Embecta — a dedicated diabetes care medical device company spun off from BD — and continues to meet the same standards of quality and reliability trusted by clinical settings.

Featuring a sliding safety arm that activates with one hand, the SafetyGlide™ keeps fingers behind the needle at all times and provides a visible lock confirmation once the shield is engaged. The 29-gauge, 1/2" (12.7mm) thin-wall needle with 3-bevel tip ensures smooth, comfortable insulin delivery, while the rounded, clear polypropylene hub provides excellent visibility and ease of handling. This 0.3 mL version is well suited to low-dose insulin applications requiring both precision and safety-engineered protection.

FAQ

Is this the same product as the BD SafetyGlide™ insulin syringe?
Yes. This product was formerly manufactured under the Becton Dickinson/BD brand. Embecta was spun off from BD as a dedicated diabetes care medical device company, and this syringe continues to meet the same specifications and quality standards.

How does the SafetyGlide™ shielding mechanism work?
The SafetyGlide™ features a sliding safety arm that can be activated with one hand immediately after injection. Once engaged, the shield covers the needle and locks visibly in place, keeping fingers safely behind the needle at all times.

How does this syringe compare to the other SafetyGlide™ volumes?
All three SafetyGlide™ insulin syringes share the same 29G x 1/2" needle and one-hand shielding mechanism. This 0.3 mL version is suited to the lowest-dose applications, while the 0.5 mL (150-305932) and 1 mL (150-305930) versions accommodate progressively higher volumes.

Why choose a safety-engineered syringe?
Safety-engineered devices like the SafetyGlide™ help protect healthcare workers from accidental needlestick injuries, which can pose serious infection risks. Many healthcare facilities require safety-engineered sharps devices as part of their occupational health and safety standards.

Is this syringe latex-free?
Yes. Not made with natural rubber latex, making it suitable for patients and clinicians with latex sensitivities.

How is this syringe sterilised?
Sterilised using gamma irradiation, ensuring sterility and safety for single use.
