needle size for drawing from vials

**PK-V** · 02-05-2011, 03:05 PM

used an 18g at the start and let me tell you something. fuk that shit

I don't know how many times i've had the 18g chip off a small big of the rubber stopper on the inside of the vial down into the oil and had it drawn into the syringe just about to pin when I spotted it

needless to say I now use a 23g to draw, yea it takes a little longer but hey no worries about making shit of the top of the vial and or injecting a piece of rubber into your ass

although I couldn't imagine it fitting through a smaller needle after you switch them before pinning... still though

I've always used a 19g mate and have never had issues with my vials! Maybe buy some new vials.......

22g would be fine. Shouldn't get any rubber chunks.

18g will kill the stopper imo

1-heat vial over some dry heat untill oil is thin and warmish

2- add 23g pin to syringe

3-draw 2ml of air into syringe (or whatever size injection your doing)

4-hold vail upside down and insert pin into stopper

5-pump air into vial

the preasure will mean it self draws nice and easy without any pulling on plunger ...

thats how i do it...
