Monoject3072331PK12 Curved Tip Syringe, 0.5" Height, 0.5" Wide, 4" Length, 12 cu. in. (Pack of 12)

I will pay a few dollars more and have returned to the Monojet 412. The quality is well worth the price. After using the Monojet for about five years for multiple purposes such as using it as a oral irrigator with warm salt water to take superb care of my dental health; and feeding injured birds and squirrels before releasing them back into the wild, I began to take the syringes for granted. I sought cheaper syringes. Then reality hit. The plungers of the cheaper syringes were too big for the tube so it was a fight to get the liquids out of the syringes. This created extra work and frustration. I tossed out the troublesome syringes. I am creating a life that is full of ease, health, satisfaction, joy, and beauty. This means keeping products that work well, and provide ease. Throwing out troublesome products and things. The lesson learned with the monojet 412 is not to take for granted products like the Monojet 412 that are working well.

I've been using Monoject syringes for many years. There are two things I use them for.1. Glue - Using a syringe to put glue where I want it is great. I've primarily used them for wood glue when I need to meter the amount of glue or get it deep into a crack. If you use a Monoject for something like Pliobond 30 (used in camera repair), it may only last a few uses, but again worth it.2. Grease - Using a syringe is great for getting grease where you want it in small mechanisms. You can also use one to inject Bullshot grease (if you still have any) into a bicycle cable housing, which means the cable will never wear out.

These are great for so many things but my main use is to cut tip down to get the flow I need to administer food or liquified medicine to sick animals. So much easier!

These syringes have many uses. But they also work great for helping to feed small animals who can't eat on their own. When our elderly cat became nauseous, his 'rope like' saliva wouldn't let him get any food in his mouth. I had a few of these, cleaned them with soapy water (rinsing them really good in very important), cut the tip off down to about 1/4", filed down any sharp edges, loaded them up with his 'Fancy Feast Pate' (you have to add a little water and mix till it's like a sauce) sat on the couch with a pillow and his favorite blanket and fed him one syringe about 1/2" of food, every couple of minutes. I also loaded one with water. In the beginning, I fed him one food syringe and one water syringe every 4 hours (even through the night) till he got his strength back and now I feed him 3 tubes every 8 hours and at least a full tube of water with each feeding.These syringes are good for about a week and then the black rubber starts to expand and the syringes start to stick so you have to be careful if your using them for feeding because if they stick while your feeding or giving water, you could choke your little guy. So be very careful, if they don't glide easily, please throw them out and get new ones. I was taking them apart and letting them soak in soapy water after each feeding, but I started cleaning them right away and not letting them sit in water and they lasted a lot longer :0)I hope this helps. These syringes saved my cats life and I'm grateful that I could find them here on Amazon!

The seller's packaging & handling of the order was flawless. Bought 2 packages, & they appear well made, but these do not bear the actual Monoject logo, (hence 4 stars) which was unexpected, my bad for not looking at the lower reviews that also mention this. The packaging did not indicate country of origin, but the syringe itself has 'Made in USA' molded in on the opening flange. Time will tell if theses are as durable as the normally branded Monoject 412's, (which are *very* durable!) I do hope so - if so I have plenty. The tip of one I pulled from the package at random, had some minor molding flaws that a very careful slicing of the very tip with a disposable scalpel fixed. I have had to do that with at least one of the Monoject's I have bought in the past, so that's not an issue for my use.

This product was recommended by an oral surgeon after I had surgery. It is easy to use. After several uses a day for 6 or 7 days, the stopper swells up as it does with other syringes. I am happy I can easily purchase replacements from Amazon.

Following emergency care, my Australian Cattle Dog had to be fed by hand using the #412 syringe to hold prescription dog food in a pureed form. The tips had to be cut off in order to deliver this more viscous product into the dog's mouth. I needed to fill at least 18 syringes to deliver two meals per day, so needed a supply to prepare in advance as the process is quite time-consuming. I do not dispose of these but take them apart and wash them immediately after each use. These have saved me a lot of time and I am glad to have found them as I slowly transition my dog back to regular food.
