Irrigating Tips · Vista Apex Appli-Vac™ · 30G purple · 25.4 mm · 100
Two things worth knowing before you buy a hundred of anything. Vista Apex describe the Appli-Vac as slotted and side-vented for safe irrigation, on a luer lock hub – and at 100 a bag the tips come individually capped, which is not true of every bulk bag of needles. At 30G this is the narrow one, colour-coded purple so it is not confused with the 27.
This pack: 100 × Appli-Vac™ 25.4 mm irrigating tips, Vista Apex, 30G, purple, slotted and side-vented, luer lock, individually capped
Made by Vista Apex
| Slotted, side-vented | Vista Apex’s wording is "slotted and side-vented for safe irrigation" – irrigant leaves at the side rather than jetting from an open end |
| Individually capped | Vista Apex state the 100-tip bags come individually capped. – the difference between a tip you hand straight to a nurse and one loose in a bag |
| 30G purple, luer lock | Colour-coded by gauge, on a luer lock hub, so it locks on rather than pushing off under pressure |
› Matched syringe Appli-Vac™ Pre-Tipped Syringes, 30G – Vista Apex build the Appli-Vac around these.
› The other gauge Vista Appli-Vac™ Irrigation Needles, 27G (100) – 27G for more volume.
› Irrigants Chlorax 5.25%, Chlorax 2% and Endo-Solution 17% EDTA.
› Reusable alternative NiTi SuperFlex™ 30G – autoclavable nickel-titanium, six per cup.
27G or 30G?
A wider needle moves more irrigant; a narrower one goes further into a conservative preparation. Both are stocked because it depends on the canal, not on which is better.
Are they autoclavable?
Vista Apex say neither way, so neither do we – treat them as single-use. For a tip that is explicitly reusable, the NiTi SuperFlex above is the one.
Will they fit my syringe?
Luer lock hub, so any standard luer lock barrel. Vista Apex design them around their own Appli-Vac pre-tipped syringes.
