Abstract
An injection needle protector protects a needle tube that is connected to a needle base and which has an outer periphery, a tip, and a needle base side opposite to the tip, by covering the needle tube. The injection needle protector includes a first cap and a second cap. The first cap protects the needle tube on the needle base side of the needle tube and has a supporter that supports the needle tube from the outer periphery of the needle tube. The first cap further has a held portion at an outer periphery of the first cap for being held by a fixing portion of an injector holder. The second cap protects the rest of the needle tube that is not protected by the first cap.
