The Portex 4139 Point-Lok Sharps Safety Device is a precision-engineered, stand-alone sharps protection device designed to lock onto and encapsulate used needles and stylets safely after use. It is targeted toward healthcare facilities, clinics, and procedural settings where needle safety and infection control are critical. By offering a secure needle capture solution, the Point-Lok helps reduce needlestick risk while conforming to regulatory safety goals.

Designed for broader compatibility, the device accommodates 16- to 30-gauge needles and stylets that lack integrated safety features. During use, the healthcare professional places the open end of the Point-Lok over the exposed needle point on a firm surface (never on the hand) and presses down, triggering the patented mechanism to lock the needle in place. The soft plastic lining at its base ensures a leak-resistant and airtight seal, even under fluid exposure, thereby minimizing exposure risks.

Because the device is fully disposable and provided in prepackaged sterile bags (100 per bag), it eliminates the need for manual handling or repositioning of contaminated sharps. This feature streamlines workflow in busy clinical environments and supports sharps safety protocols. With compliance to the Federal Register’s engineered control definition, the Portex 4139 Point-Lok delivers both regulatory alignment and frontline protection for clinicians.
