20 G needle

I think you have to be careful with such dimensions. 1er (1mm) is the needle opening size not a number. Please see the linked document, in which 1er corresponds to 20 G (gauge), which is equivalent to 0.902 mm. Needle seems to be more common than cannula. I'm not an expert and this is only intended as a hint for further research.

Check also this link on Wikipedia: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(Maßeinheit)

and the needle conversion chart:

2 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Many thanks for your help: I was on the wrong lines with "cannula". I've since found out from the transaltion bureau that this relates to a size 1 needle under the Pravaz system which equates to 0.9mm."
