Specifies requirements for conical lock fittings with a 6% (Luer) taper for use with hypodermic syringes and needles and with certain other apparatus for medical use, e.g. transfusion equipment for fittings and semi-rigid materials, includes test methods.
Scope
This part of ISO 594 specifies requirements for conical lock fittings with a 6 % (Luer) taper for use with hypodermic syringes and needles and with certain other apparatus for medical use, e.g. transfusion equipment.
The requirements apply to fittings made of rigid and of semi-rigid materials and include test methods, but exclude provision for more flexible or elastomeric materials.
NOTE 1 It is not practicable to define the characteristics of rigid or semi-rigid materials with precision, but glass and metal may be considered as typical rigid materials. In contrast many plastics materials may be regarded as semi-rigid.
NOTE 2 The Luer lock fitting was designed for use at pressures of the order of 300 kPa or lower. Its use in other applications may require consideration to establish its suitability.
