Stainless Steel
Hypodermic Tubing
Needle Blanks & Shear-Cut Hypotube Parts
Parts Engineering & Manufacturing Website
We fabricate cut tube components for hypodermic needles, re-usable needles, injection and transfer (blunt) needles, custom needle cannulas, medical, dental and veterinary tubular devices, from hundreds to billions of parts.
Our high volume production process for hypodermic blanks yields uniform parts with square cut ends and minimal ID/OD distortion, ready for Luer Lock fittings, grinding, and additional machining.
Made in U.S.A. since 1985
Shear Cut Tubular Components
Standard, Custom & Half-Gauge Hypotube
We manufacture needle tubes from standard gauge stainless steel hypodermic tubing (gauges 3 to 25) and custom gauge tubing, as needed, for specific configurations. Lengths range from 0.010″ to 18″, with tolerances to ± 0.001″. Our shear-cut process produces square cut edges with no material loss between cuts and minimal OD/ID distortion. We're aslo able to accomplish notching, slotting, punching, bending, and more during the tube cutting process.
Hypotube and Parts Manufacturing
We'll cut your tubing to your exact specifications or source material direct through our relationships with various tubing mills. We precision cut tubes as short as 0.010″ ± 0.001″ in runs from hundreds to billions of tubular parts.
Hypotube parts can include notching, hole punching, bulging, pinching, and many more configurations.
The Value of Shear Cutting
Our specialized shear cutting machines eliminate material waste between cuts, saving up to 50% on material costs. We can usually bend, hole punch & end form during the tube cut-off process.
