The smallest bore needle is typically a 27-gauge needle, which has an outer diameter of about 0.20 mm (0.008 inches). These needles are often used for very delicate procedures, such as injecting small volumes of medication or for drawing blood from fragile veins. Due to their thin size, they cause minimal pain and trauma to the tissue.
