This high-quality retractable safety syringe has been specifically designed to be used exactly like a traditional syringe, with the added benefit of a locking mechanism that ‘clicks’ into the place when the needle is fully depressed. When the needle is retracted, it’s drawn back into the plunger barrel. Once fully retracted, the needle tilts to the side, and is captured in the barrel. This prevents needlestick injuries or reuse. The barrel plunger is then snapped off as a further precaution .
See the image below of the ClickZip™ technology pictured both before and after use, showing the needle retracted and encapsulated into the barrel of the syringe.
This technology provides valuable protection for health workers, patients and others in the community. The ClickZip™ safety syringe technology features a high-quality Japanese designed stainless steel cannulas, providing increased patient comfort.
ClickZip™ meets international standards for medical devices and the US Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) recommendations for needlestick safety devices. ClickZip™ is US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) 510K approved, Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) approved, CE marked and listed with the World Health Organisation (WHO).
The ClickZip™ Needle Retractable Safety Syringe ranges in size from 0.3ml, 1ml Insulin and Tuberculin, 1ml, 2ml, 3ml, 5ml and 10ml. It’s suitable for extension to other needle bearing products including IV scalp vein sets, IV catheters and pre-filled delivery systems. See the range below.

No leakage | Avoids contamination |
No gap - minimal dead space | Reduced viral survival |
Active-retractable needle technology – manual retraction | Increased user control |
After the injection is given, the user can retract the needle before of after removing the needle from the patient | Reduce needle exposureIncrease users control and safety |
After the injection is given, the user can retract the needle before of after removing the needle from the patient | Reduce needle exposureIncrease users control and safety |
No change to injection technique | No or minimal training required – simple to use |
When retracted after use, the needle tilts to one side into the syringe barrel | Encapsulating the needle in the barrel of the syringe increases safety, reduces risk of needlestick injury, prevents reuse of needle and reduces need for sharps container |
The barrel incorporates the needle back-stopper | Prevents the syringe disassembling |
The safety feature is an integral part of the device | No need to ‘add-on’ safety features, no additional operation required and user-friendly technology |
The user can hear and feel when the locking mechanism is activated | The user knows when injection has been successfully delivered, increasing the user’s confidence Meets NIOSH recommendation for needlestick devices |
After needle retraction, the plunger is snapped of encapsulating the used needle | Safe disposal after use and further prevention of reuse or needlestick injury |
Break away plunger | Prevents reuse |
