How to think about this product

Buyers should consider the Cathlon series when clinical applications require the feel and weight of a metal hub, which distinguishes it from all-plastic standard IV catheters. The 18G x 1.25-inch size is a common choice for fluid resuscitation or rapid infusion due to the thinwall design, which allows for higher flow rates compared to standard wall catheters of the same gauge. While similar to the JELCO design, the inclusion of suture rings provides an additional mechanical securement option for longer-term access in acute care settings.
