Conical Fittings with a 6 % (Luer) Taper for Syringes, Needles and Certain Other Medical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements

Scope and field of application
This part of ISO 594 specifies requirements for conical fittings with
a 6 % (Luer) taper for use
with hypodermic syringes and needles and with certain other apparatus
for medical use such as
transfusion and infusion sets.
It covers conical fittings made of rigid and of semi-rigid materials
and includes test methods for
gauging and performance. It excludes provision for more flexible or
elastomeric materials.
Figure 1 illustrates typical male 6 % (Luer) conical fitting ("male
fitting") and female 6 % (Luer)
conical fitting ("female fitting").
NOTE - 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. By contrast, many
plastic materials may be regarded as semi-rigid although the wall
thickness is an important factor
influencing the rigidity of a component.
