The Patent Pending Heel Bypass™ is Industrial Strength’s most advanced body piercing needle, combining our proprietary Star Grind™ geometry with an innovative bend engineered to change how the needle travels through tissue.
Unlike conventional piercing needles, the Heel Bypass™ features a precisely engineered bend located between the heel and the base of the primary grind. This unique geometry aligns the top of the needle with the tube while allowing the heel to bypass tissue during penetration. The result is a straighter path through tissue with reduced drag, improved control, and virtually no needle drift.
The Heel Bypass™ also incorporates our Patent Pending Star Grind™, which removes less material during grinding than conventional bevels. This preserves more of the original needle geometry, creating a flatter, more continuous cutting edge that allows tissue to glide more smoothly over the bevel.
Every Heel Bypass™ needle is finished with our exclusive Slickass™ heat-cured Pure PTFE coating, providing exceptional lubricity, durability, and smooth performance through repeated steam autoclave sterilization.
Industrial Strength LLC has been manufacturing body piercing needles for over 31 years and is backed by a 79-year family legacy in hypodermic needle manufacturing. Every Heel Bypass™ needle is manufactured in our Connecticut facility using proprietary grinding methods, precision bending, passivation, inspection, and quality-control processes developed through decades of manufacturing expertise.
The Patent Pending Heel Bypass™ represents our most advanced achievement in piercing needle design, combining innovative engineering with American manufacturing to deliver exceptional precision, consistency, and performance.
What is the Heel Bypass™?
The Patent Pending Heel Bypass™ is a proprietary needle design that combines a precisely engineered bend with the Patent Pending Star Grind™. Together, these features are designed to create a straighter path through tissue while reducing drag and minimizing needle drift.
Why is the bend located between the heel and the primary grind?
The bend is positioned to align the top of the needle with the tube while allowing the heel to bypass tissue during penetration. This unique geometry contributes to smoother needle travel and improved control.
Does the Heel Bypass™ include the Star Grind™?
Yes. Every Heel Bypass™ incorporates the Patent Pending Star Grind™, which removes less material during grinding to create a flatter, more continuous cutting edge.
Where are Heel Bypass™ needles manufactured?
Every Heel Bypass™ needle is proudly manufactured in the USA by Industrial Strength LLC using premium 304 ASTM surgical stainless steel.
