A Spinal Needle Manufacturer Covering 18G to 27G Under Your Brand

Zhenjiang Gaoguan Medical Appliances Co., Ltd is a spinal needle manufacturer with 20 years of single-use device production experience, an ISO 13485 certified quality management system, and CE marked products sold in 30+ countries. We manufacture spinal anesthesia needles in Quincke (cutting-bevel) and pencil-point (non-traumatic) designs, from 18G down to 27G, for OEM and private label partners.

Spinal needles are a tip-geometry business. The difference between a Quincke and a pencil-point needle is not marketing — it is dural puncture mechanics and post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) risk. As your OEM partner we manufacture to the tip design your clinical advisors specify, and we hold that geometry within defined tolerances batch after batch. For background on the clinical trade-offs, see pencil-point spinal needle benefits, pencil-point needles and PDPH risk, et spinal needle bevel design and outcomes.

Full Gauge Range and Color Coding

We manufacture the following standard range; each gauge is available as an OEM item with your packaging and labeling:

JaugeAvailable Tip DesignsProduct Reference
18GQuinckeAN-S18G
20GQuinckeAN-S20G
21GQuincke / pencil point pencil-point available on requestAN-S21G

23GQuinckeAN-S23G
25GQuincke / pencil pointAN-S25G, non-traumatic pencil-point model
27GQuincke and pencil-point optionsAN-S27G

Color coding follows the standard hub color convention for each gauge (e.g., yellow for 20G, black for 22G ). If your market uses a different coding standard, we manufacture to your hub color specification — this is one of the most common OEM requests and requires no tooling change on most configurations.

Customization Dimensions Beyond Gauge

Production and Release Controls

Spinal needle release includes dimensional verification of tubing per ISO 9626, tip geometry inspection under magnification, stylet fit check, hub pull-force testing, and — where applicable — sharpness and strength sampling. Tip consistency is the checkpoint most OEM customers audit first, and we encourage you to include it in your inspection protocol during sample approval. Packaging is validated to ISO 11607 so your sterile barrier claim survives transport.

Foire aux questions

Which gauges and tip types can I order as OEM spinal needles?

18G to 27G, in Quincke and pencil-point designs. Some gauge/tip combinations map to specific product references (see the table above); others are built to your written specification.

Can you match our market's hub color coding standard?

Yes. We can follow the standard gauge-color convention or your own coding scheme. Confirm your mapping at specification stage and we manufacture to it.

What is the clinical difference between pencil-point and Quincke needles?

Pencil-point tips separate dural fibers rather than cutting them, which is why many buyers specify them to address post-dural puncture headache risk. Quincke needles offer easier penetration feel and lower cost. The choice should follow your clinical advisors and market norms.

Do you supply spinal needles as part of combined kits?

Yes. We manufacture combined epidural and spinal anesthesia puncture kits and can configure the spinal needle gauge/tip together with your chosen epidural needle and components.

What is the MOQ and lead time for OEM spinal needles?

Both depend on gauge, tip type, and packaging scope MOQ from 500 pcs and lead time 2–6 weeks; trial quantities available. First-time customers can start with trial quantities under our flexible MOQ program.
