The Exel Safelet 18G × 1½″ IV Catheter (SKU 26736) is engineered to deliver reliable peripheral vascular access in clinical settings where moderate flow and access durability are required. An 18‑gauge diameter offers a balance between ease of insertion and adequate flow for many infusion, medication or fluid therapy scenarios. The 1½″ length allows access to deeper veins when needed without undue excess length, making it a practical choice for general‑care units, infusion bays or emergency departments.

This catheter stands out thanks to its thoughtful design and material quality. The body is constructed from radiopaque PTFE/FEP material, which enhances kink resistance and allows imaging visibility if needed—helping maintain patency and integrity under typical use. The wingless design supports streamlined insertion, and the translucent hub and flashback chamber provide clear, immediate visual confirmation of venous access—reducing guesswork and improving procedural efficiency. The color‑coded hub simplifies gauge selection and inventory management, while the latex‑free construction ensures safe use for patients with latex sensitivities.

From an operational perspective, this product supports efficient facility workflows and supply‑chain management. The packaging (50 per box, 4 boxes per case) is well suited for high‑volume settings and supports standardized usage across multiple units or departments. Facilities that standardize on a device like the Safelet 26736 benefit from predictable performance and simplified training. In summary, the Exel Safelet 18G × 1½″ offers a reliable, clinician‑friendly option for peripheral IV access that aligns with operational needs in busy healthcare environments.
