Stopper chunks in my Tren

[dbennett600]

Title pretty much sums up my issue. I have ugl tren ace. I pull with an 18g pin and inject with a 23g. The problem is, I now have chunks of the rubber stopper floating in my vial. The chunks also pull into my syringe. I bought 6 bottles of the tren A several months ago to rub with test cyp. Since I had others, I pushed the first bottle aside and moved on to the next. Same problem. I stopped the tren all together as I didn't want to inject rubber into my glute.

So my question... is there a safe/sterile way I can filter my tren and use it?

Ugh that sucks bro. Someone more experienced with filtering should be able to help you hopefully. My only advice is to use a smaller gauge for drawing. I usually use no bigger than 21g. Best of luck.

Yup, syringe filters are probably the best way to go here with new sterile vials. I've always heard of this happening with 18ga draw pins, but never seen it personally. I wonder if some labs just use cheap rubber stoppers, or if it's a different kind of rubber altogether...?

If you still have this issue with a 20ga, I'd probably contact the UGL - as that could potentially mean old stoppers, and old brew potentially.

I'm going with cheap quality stoppers. I use 18g on my test cyp which I pick up from the pharmacy. Never had any issues like this. Any recommendations on where to get filters would be appreciated. Otherwise I'll do some Web searching.

RUI at the top of your screen has them last I checked.

This does work have had to do it many times back in the fina cart days

18 g will damage the stopper and possibly contaminate your gear. Use a smaller pin to draw.
