The BD PrecisionGlide 27G × ½″ needle is a fine hypodermic needle designed for applications requiring a delicate, precise penetration with minimal patient discomfort. Its relatively small gauge (27 G) and moderate length (½ inch) make it suitable for subcutaneous or intradermal injections where deeper penetration is not required but reliable access through skin and superficial tissues is necessary. The use of a regular bevel, tri‑bevel tip helps the needle tip enter tissues more smoothly, reducing insertion force and improving user control.

Constructed with a stainless steel shaft mated to a polypropylene hub, this needle is fitted to standard luer connections, allowing compatibility with a wide range of syringes (both luer‑lock and slip types). The hub is color‑coded gray, consistent with ANSI/ISO standards for 27G needles, making identification straightforward in clinical settings. Because it is sterile and intended for single use, it reduces cross‑contamination risk and simplifies handling protocols in busy care environments.

Clinically, this needle is often stocked in boxes of 100 to support routine injection workflows. Its design emphasizes a balance between structural strength and patient comfort—thin enough to be relatively gentle, while still rigid and sharp enough to reliably traverse skin and superficial tissues. Though it lacks integrated safety features (so it must be handled according to standard sharps precautions), its consistent manufacturing by BD and widespread acceptance means it is a reliable and predictable choice in many medical, laboratory, and outpatient contexts.
