Description
Non-sterile practice needles for the SAM IO intraosseous access system, sold in packs of 15. They load and drive exactly like the sterile clinical needle, so responders build real muscle memory for trigger actuation, angle, and the tactile pop at the medullary space without opening a single sterile needle set. Each pack carries the new Gen II tapered hub design.
Why It Fits Your Program
If your agency trains IO access on a schedule, practice needles are the line item that decides how often skills get refreshed. EMS training officers, military and tactical medicine instructors, nursing and paramedic programs, and hospital education departments use these to run repeat reps at a fraction of the cost of clinical stock. Buying by length lets you match the pack to the bone site you drill most, or take the mixed pack when a class covers proximal humerus, proximal tibia, and distal sites in one session.
What Is Included
- 15 non-sterile SAM IO Gen II training needles per pack
- Single-length packs available in 15mm, 25mm, and 45mm
- Mixed pack option containing all three lengths

Compatibility
Fits the SAM IO Driver (IO700) and the SAM IO Stabilizer (IO740-1P, IO740-5P). Designed for use with SAM IO Training Kits with Sawbones (IO820 proximal humerus, IO821 proximal tibia, IO823 all three bones). These are practice needles and are not sterile. Never use a training needle on a patient. For clinical use, order the sterile Gen II needle sets IO805, IO806, or IO807.
Program Context
Intraosseous access is a perishable skill. Agencies that pair a training kit with a standing supply of practice needles keep their reps up between certification cycles instead of scrambling before a skills check. Reorder these alongside your sterile needle stock so the training bench never sits idle, and note that SAM discontinued the distal tibia training kit with the Gen II change while all other configurations carry forward.
