Product details
Xiboya textile 16G Pack of 50 catheter piercing needles are individually sealed, 316L surgical stainless steel hollow needles designed to guide jewelry cleanly during ear, nose and body piercings.
These 16-gauge catheter piercing needles come as a bulk value pack of 50, each needle vacuum-sealed with a protective rubber cap and a plastic tube to help slide jewelry through fresh piercings. Manufactured from 316L stainless steel, they are supplied sterile-packed for single use and meant to simplify the piercing process by stabilizing tissue and protecting the jewelry during insertion.
How do these needles support a smooth jewelry insertion?
The hollow catheter design creates a guided channel so jewelry can be threaded directly through the needle's plastic sleeve, reducing twisting and snagging during placement. The clear plastic tube holds the jewelry steady, making it easier to seat jewelry without repeatedly withdrawing the needle.
- 16G hollow needle with integrated plastic catheter for guided jewelry passage
- Plastic sleeve keeps tissue open while sliding jewelry through
- Rubber cap protects the needle tip until use
- Vacuum-sealed, single-use packaging to maintain sterility
What materials and quality controls are built into the product?
Each needle is made from 316L surgical stainless steel chosen for its corrosion resistance and common use in body jewelry and tools. Needles are individually packed and checked for sharpness and cleanliness before shipping to ensure consistent performance for professional or at-home puncture tasks.
- 316L stainless steel construction for durability and low reactivity
- Individually vacuum-sealed tubes preventing contamination
- Needle head protected by a rubber cap during transport
- Quality control inspection to verify sharpness and assembly
Which piercing locations and users are these needles suited for?
These 16G needles are versatile: commonly used for ears, nostrils, lips, nipples, eyebrows, navels and tongues depending on local preferences and anatomy. They are suitable for experienced piercers, tattoo studios, training, or personal use when proper hygiene, technique and local regulations are followed.
- Suitable for ear, nose, lip, nipple, eyebrow, navel and tongue piercing
- Available in a 50-piece value pack for high-volume or practice use
- Intended for single use only to maintain safety
- Useful for professionals, apprentices, or carefully prepared home setups
How should these needles be handled and disposed of safely?
Follow single-use best practices: do not reinsert a withdrawn needle and dispose of each used needle in an approved sharps container. Maintain a clean, sterile environment and use new sealed needles for every client or session to reduce risk and ensure consistent results.
- Do not attempt to reuse needles or reinsert partially withdrawn needles
- Dispose of used needles in a certified sharps container following local regulations
- Use with gloves, antiseptic technique, and proper aftercare instructions
- Only trained persons should perform piercings; follow local laws and guidelines
Who is this for? Professionals in tattoo and piercing studios, apprentices learning technique, and experienced individuals setting up a controlled home piercing station will appreciate the Xiboya textile 16G pack for its cost-effective bulk quantity, consistent stainless-steel quality and single-use sealed packaging. If you perform multiple piercings or want an on-hand supply of 16-gauge catheter needles with plastic tubing for guided jewelry insertion, this pack streamlines the process. Note: these are tools, not medical devices; always follow hygiene protocols and local regulations when performing body piercings.
