Insulin Needles

Im using an insulin needle to inject, but the measurements are in units. So how many units equal 1cc? I dont know the convertion there,
 
insulin syringes hold at most 100 units, aka 1cc aka 1ml. With gear you will undoubtedly need to be injecting that.

On top of that, using a 28-31 gauge insulin syringe to perform an IM injection is downright STUPID! Insulin syringes were not designed to have viscous oils flow through the needle. Do you realize that you can fairly easily break brittle insulin syringe needles off inside of your muscle tissue?

Good luck explaining that one to the ER physician.

Now you tell me?

I've been using slin-pins for my testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) shots for a year now. So far never any problems.
 
i started using slin pins about 3months ago for delt shots and ive never had an issue.. its actually my new favorite thing..lol i dont inject more than 1cc at a time though.. more people do it than you think.. just have to be experienced and relaxed.. and honestly its not hard at all to push the oil through...

I've tried breaking the pin off the end before.... It is actually a real bitch to get off. They just bend back and forth and don't break.

May depend on the brand tho...different grade metals perhaps...

tried the same and had the same luck.. actually used needle nose pliers and it was still not as easy as you would think.. im not saying all needles are like that but the ones i use werent easy to break.. ive seen some idiots bend regular needles in their delts trying to squeeze Winstrol (winny) in but never seen one break off.. but im sure its possible..
