The needle hub 4 has a first engagement portion 16. The stylet handle 10 has a second engagement portion. Engagement of the first engagement portion 16 of the needle hub 4 and the second engagement portion of the stylet handle 10 form a positive lock, which restricts the first engagement portion 16 from separating from the second engagement portion in the longitudinal direction. The first engagement portion 16 is a recess and the second engagement portion is a protrusion for releasable receipt within the recess. The recess further comprises a shoulder. The protrusion further comprises a restraining end engageable with the shoulder when the needle hub 4 and stylet handle 10 form a positive lock.
