Syringe problem

ad

My syringes are taking a small chunk out of my bottle stopper everytime. They are 22ga 1 1/2" and the brand is Exel int. I've never had this problem before. Anybody else used this brand? If so any problems like this? I had to filter my test cyp. Any other brand recommendations? Thanks, Bandit

I use 23 to draw and 25 to pin. Never had a problem injecting with a 25 even with thicker oils. That's why I put my gear in hot water for about 2 minutes to warm it up and the drawing and pinning is easy as hell. Then again I don't race to see how fast I can inject; i take my time, about 30 seconds or more to inject it. I find it seprates the muscle slower and very little pain.

You mean the needle?...the syringe is the glass or plastic tube that holds the liquid...search google for needles and by some different ones..i dont think its the needle maybe the rubber was old or dried out from heat or something and the needle just busted it...i use an 18 g to draw and it never leaves a hole..good luck

Yes it's the needle. Can't be the bottle. It does it to the brand new bottle of test I just got from my supplier and I just filtered my stuff into a brand new sterile bottle and it did the same thing to it. Luckily I saw it stuck in the needle tip. I always switch needles anyway so I took a sewing needle and picked it out and that's what it was. I got lucky and nothing fell in my newly filtered bottle. But if it wouldn't have stuck in the tip I'd be filtering again.
