Bayonet Tumescent Infiltration Cannula – Universal Luer Lock

The Bayonet Tumescent Infiltration Cannula with Universal Luer Lock is a blunt-tip cannula with a stepped offset shaft, whose hub is machined to seat correctly across the range of Luer lock syringes and tubing sets found in most theaters. Buyers choose this fitting when their consumable supply changes brand between orders and a hub that only seats well on one brand becomes a daily problem. See the full Tumescent Bayonet Infiltration Cannulas range for other fittings.

Buyers also search for this instrument as a universal luer bayonet cannula, a multi-fit luer lock infiltrator, or a standard luer offset cannula.

Universal Luer Lock Hub on a Bayonet Infiltration Cannula

Luer lock is a standard, but manufacturing tolerances differ between brands, and a hub cut to the tight end of the tolerance band can seat poorly on some syringes. A universal hub is machined to sit centrally in that band, so it locks properly across whatever stock is on the shelf that week. For a clinic buying consumables from more than one supplier, this removes a recurring irritation.

What the Bayonet Shape Does

A bayonet cannula has a stepped offset bend in the shaft between the hub and the working section. The offset moves the hub, the handle and the surgeon's hand sideways, out of the straight line running back from the entry site. That single change in geometry solves two problems at once.

First, sight lines. With a straight cannula the hand sits directly behind the entry point and blocks the view of the skin being filled. With the offset, the hand is out of that line and the surgeon can watch the entry site and the tissue turgor while infiltrating.

Second, angle of approach. The offset lets the working section be held closer to parallel with the skin while the hub stays clear of the body surface. The cannula stays in the subcutaneous plane instead of angling down into deeper tissue, which is exactly what an infiltration pass needs. The same clearance helps when working under a retracted flap or in a confined area where a straight hub would foul the surrounding tissue.

The distal tip is closed and rounded. It separates the subcutaneous plane by blunt dissection as the cannula advances, pushing vessels and nerves aside rather than dividing them, and side holes along the working section release the solution along the length of the pass rather than at one point.

Specifications

Clinical Applications

• Tumescent infiltration before body liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, back and thighs
• Wetting solution delivery before power-assisted and syringe liposuction
• Arm, neck and submental infiltration with the shorter, smaller-diameter sizes
• Infiltration under a retracted flap or in confined areas where a straight hub would foul

Material and Sterilization

The cannula is made from German stainless steel with a passivated surface that resists corrosion and pitting through repeated cleaning cycles. It is reusable and can be steam autoclaved at 134°C. Flush the lumen and every side hole with clean water immediately after use and dry fully before autoclaving. On a bayonet cannula, pay attention to the offset bend during cleaning: any bend in a lumen is where residue settles first, so flush from both ends until the water runs clear.

How to Choose

Choose the universal hub if your syringe stock varies by brand or you supply a hospital group buying consumables centrally; if you use one brand consistently, the standard Luer lock version does the same job. Diameter sets the flow rate and length sets the reach. For large body areas such as the abdomen, flanks and thighs, the 2.5mm to 4.0mm diameters in 25cm to 35cm are the usual working range, because they fill a large area in fewer passes. The 1.8mm to 2.5mm range in 15cm to 25cm suits arms, the neck and smaller regions. The 1.0mm to 1.5mm diameters in 5cm to 12cm are for facial and submental infiltration, where thin tissue needs a small-diameter cannula. Match the fitting to the syringe, pump or handpiece already in your theater.

Why Buy Direct From the Manufacturer

Manufactured by Healermed Instruments, a surgical instruments manufacturer and exporter based in Sialkot, Pakistan. Factory-direct pricing removes the importer and distributor layer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a universal Luer lock bayonet cannula used for?

It is used to deliver tumescent or wetting solution into subcutaneous tissue before liposuction, with a hub machined to seat correctly across different syringe and tubing brands. Clinics that buy consumables from more than one supplier choose it so the same cannula works with whatever stock arrives.

What is the difference between a bayonet cannula and a straight cannula?

A bayonet cannula has a stepped offset in the shaft; a straight cannula does not. The offset moves the hub and the surgeon's hand out of the line of sight to the entry site, and lets the working section stay closer to parallel with the skin. A straight cannula is simpler to clean and store, but the hand blocks the view.

Is this cannula autoclavable?

Yes. The instrument is fully reusable and can be steam autoclaved at 134°C. Flush the lumen and every side hole with clean water immediately after use, remove all residue before sterilization, and dry completely. Flush from both ends so nothing is left sitting in the offset bend, where residue collects first.

What is the minimum order quantity for bulk orders?

The minimum order quantity is agreed per order rather than set at a fixed number. Send us the sizes, fittings and quantities you need through the wholesale request page and we will confirm the minimum for that specification. This lets a small distributor start with a trial order and a larger importer scale up on the same terms.

Do you provide samples?

Yes. Samples are available on request and the buyer covers the shipping charges. Tell us the diameter and length you want to evaluate and we will confirm what can be sent. Testing a sample against the syringe brands you actually stock confirms the universal hub fits your supply.

Can I order a custom size?

Yes. Custom diameters, working lengths, and hole patterns are available on request in addition to the standard size grid. Send your specification through the wholesale request page and our production team will confirm what can be produced. Custom branding is also available for distributor and OEM orders.
