Liposuction Cannulas and Accessories › Syringe SnapLock Stop Lock 10cc
The Syringe SnapLock Stop Lock 10cc, also called a stop lock or plunger lock, snaps onto a 10cc syringe plunger and holds it at the drawn-back position so negative pressure is maintained without the surgeon holding it. Facial and small-volume harvesting, where a few millilitres are taken from each pass and the syringe is changed often. It is part of the Healermed liposuction cannulas and accessories range.
At a Glance
The 10cc lock is sized for the smallest harvesting syringe on a fat transfer table.
At this volume the syringe is changed constantly. A facial harvest is taken a few millilitres at a time, so the surgeon is drawing back, working, disconnecting and reloading many times in a session. The lock has to snap on and release quickly or it costs more time than it saves, which is why a small lock is judged on how fast it operates rather than how much load it carries.
Vacuum control matters more at this size, not less. Small syringes are used where the donor tissue is thin and the margin for over-harvesting is smallest, and a plunger held by a tiring hand does not hold a consistent negative pressure. Setting it mechanically means every pass is taken at the pressure the surgeon chose.
In syringe-assisted liposuction the vacuum comes from the plunger. The surgeon draws it back, and the negative pressure that holds while the cannula works is only there for as long as the plunger is held.
That is the problem the stop lock solves. Holding a plunger back against suction for a full pass takes a hand, and it takes force that grows as the barrel fills. The surgeon is doing two things at once: driving the cannula through tissue with one hand and maintaining vacuum with the other, for as long as the harvest takes.
A SnapLock snaps onto the plunger shaft behind the barrel flange and holds it at the drawn-back position. The vacuum becomes mechanical rather than muscular. The surgeon sets it once, and both hands are free to work the cannula for the rest of the syringe.
There is a second gain that matters more than comfort. A hand-held plunger creeps. As the hand tires the vacuum falls off gradually and the surgeon does not necessarily notice, so the last part of a syringe is harvested at lower suction than the first. A mechanical stop holds the same position throughout, so every pass into that syringe is taken at the same negative pressure.
| Material | German stainless steel |
| Syringe size | 10cc |
| Also known as | Stop lock, plunger lock, syringe vacuum lock |
| Function | Maintains negative pressure without hand pressure on the plunger |
| Reusable | Yes — steam autoclavable to 134°C |
| Other sizes | Also made in the other harvesting syringe sizes |
| Compliance | FDA CGMP, ISO 13485, ISO 9001, CE Mark |
The lock is made from German stainless steel and is fully reusable, steam autoclavable to 134°C. Clean immediately after use and dry fully before autoclaving. Check the gripping faces at every cycle: this instrument does one job, and a lock that has spread or worn will creep under load, letting the plunger move forward and the vacuum drop without any outward sign. Replace rather than continue with a lock that no longer holds its position firmly.

What is a syringe SnapLock used for?
It holds a syringe plunger at the drawn-back position during syringe-assisted liposuction, so negative pressure is maintained mechanically instead of by hand. The surgeon sets it once and both hands are free to work the cannula for the rest of the syringe.
Is a SnapLock the same as a stop lock?
Yes. The same item is called a SnapLock, a stop lock, a plunger lock or a syringe vacuum lock depending on the supplier and the region. All refer to the device that holds a syringe plunger back to maintain suction during harvesting.
Why use a lock on a syringe this small?
Because 10cc syringes are used where the donor tissue is thin and the margin for over-harvesting is smallest. A plunger held by a tiring hand does not hold a consistent vacuum, and at this size an inconsistency matters more than it would on a large body harvest.
Does it hold vacuum better than a hand?
It holds it more consistently. A hand-held plunger creeps as the hand tires, so the last part of a syringe is harvested at lower suction than the first, usually without the surgeon noticing. A mechanical stop holds the same position throughout the syringe.
Is it autoclavable?
Yes. It is German stainless steel and steam autoclavable to 134°C. Check the gripping faces at each cycle, since a worn lock creeps under load and lets vacuum drop with no outward sign.
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 and quantities you need through the wholesale request page and we will confirm the minimum for that specification.
