The Exel Safelet IV Catheter (14 G × 1″, SKU 26743) is a high‑bore, short‑length peripheral intravenous catheter designed for rapid infusion or large‑volume access situations. With its 14‑gauge size, it offers enhanced flow rates compared to more common 18‑ or 20‑gauge devices, making it well suited for emergent, trauma, or surgical scenarios where quick vascular access is critical. The 1‑inch length supports use in standard peripheral veins while reducing insertion depth and potential complications associated with longer cannulas. Each catheter is color‑coded and comes in an easy‑to‑handle dispenser box, facilitating efficient use in busy clinical environments.

What sets this product apart is its attention to design and materials: the catheter itself is made from radiopaque PTFE (Teflon) material, permitting visualization on imaging if needed, and helping to reduce catheter kinking or flow obstruction. The hub and flash‑chamber are translucent, allowing immediate visual confirmation of venous entry via blood flashback, which improves insertion efficiency. The absence of natural rubber latex and the wingless design both enhance safety and versatility—reducing risk for latex‑sensitive patients and simplifying use in fast‑paced settings. The crimped, adhesive‑free hub engagement helps minimize blood residuals and hemolysis, supporting high‑quality venous access and infusion reliability.

From an operational perspective, the case configuration (50 units per box, 4 boxes per case) supports bulk purchasing and standardized stocking in institutional settings. The wingless, color‑coded design aligns with many protocols for peripheral IV set‑up, reducing inventory complexity and supporting training standardization. Because the device is built for high‑flow access, it can help facilities streamline their emergent access workflows—providing a ready‑to‑use, reliable catheter option when larger bore size is required. In summary, the Exel Safelet 14G × 1″ offers a blend of high‑performance access, user‑friendly design, and supply‑chain efficiency, tailored for demanding clinical settings.
