Jorgensen Labs J0051A Hauptner Syringe | 50cc Multi-Dose High-Capacity Injector

The Jorgensen Labs 50cc Hauptner Syringe utilizes a precision revolving-dose selector to deliver consistent, pre-calibrated increments of 1cc, 2cc, 3cc, 4cc, or 5cc. This high-capacity 50cc reservoir allows technical specialists to treat more animals per refill, significantly increasing throughput during mass vaccination cycles. The internal ratchet mechanism is engineered to lock firmly into each dose setting, preventing the common issue of "dosage drift" found in lower-quality manual syringes. By automating the measurement process, the syringe ensures that each animal receives the exact pharmaceutical volume required for therapeutic efficacy. This level of mechanical precision is critical for maintaining accurate medical records and ensuring herd health compliance in commercial livestock operations.

This instrument is constructed with a reinforced aluminum frame and a chrome-plated die-cast body to provide maximum impact resistance and protection for the internal glass barrel. The heavy-duty metal housing acts as a protective exoskeleton, ensuring the syringe remains functional even if dropped on concrete or subjected to the unpredictable movements of large animals. Unlike all-plastic alternatives, the Hauptner Syringe is resistant to UV degradation and the caustic effects of common farm-grade disinfectants. High-stress components are manufactured from hardened zinc alloys to ensure the trigger and plunger assembly do not fatigue under constant use. This industrial-grade build quality makes it the preferred choice for government agricultural agencies and high-volume veterinary clinics.

The 50cc Hauptner Syringe features a robust luer lock hub that provides a secure, leak-proof connection for all standard veterinary needle gauges. This secure attachment is vital when administering high-viscosity medications, such as certain oil-based vaccines or antibiotics, which can create significant back-pressure during injection. The precision-fit plunger ensures a smooth glide, allowing the technician to deliver thick formulations with minimal physical effort. Because the luer lock prevents the needle from "popping off" under pressure, it enhances both professional safety and patient comfort. This compatibility allows the syringe to be integrated into any existing surgical or field kit without requiring proprietary needle hardware.

Standardizing on the 50cc Hauptner Syringe offers a superior TCO by utilizing a fully modular design where every individual component is replaceable and repairable. Instead of discarding an entire unit due to a broken barrel or worn-out washer, facility managers can simply order specific replacement parts to restore full functionality. This "buy-it-for-life" philosophy drastically reduces the annual expenditure on disposable medical supplies and non-repairable hardware. The high-capacity 50cc barrel also reduces labor costs by minimizing the downtime required for refilling medications during large-scale procedures. Over a multi-year lifecycle, the initial capital investment is recouped through significant savings in both time and materials.

To maintain the mechanical precision and clinical safety of the syringe, it should be disassembled and subjected to regular autoclaving or chemical sterilization. The high-quality glass and chrome-plated metal components are designed to withstand the high temperatures and pressures of a standard steam sterilization cycle. After each cleaning, applying a few drops of medical-grade silicone lubricant to the plunger washer and the revolving ratchet mechanism is essential for smooth operation. This preventative maintenance prevents the buildup of mineral deposits and medication residue that can cause the trigger to stick or the dosage to become inaccurate. Following these institutional protocols ensures that the 50cc Hauptner Syringe remains a reliable, aseptic asset for the duration of its extensive service life.
