Description
The SurgiLance Lite Safety Lancets shrink the proven SurgiLance design into a smaller housing made for users with small hands. Three 28G models at 1.4, 1.8, and 2.2 mm depths keep the same single use safety and color coding in a device that is easier to grip and fire.
- Smaller Housing Design – the Lite body was made for smaller hands, including pediatric staff and petite users who find standard lancets awkward
- Fine 28G Needle – every Lite model uses the finer 28G needle paired with three depth choices
- Color Coded Depths – yellow, gray, and orange housings mark 1.4, 1.8, and 2.2 mm depths for quick selection
- Same Safety Pattern – single use with the sharp concealed, following the design language of the Classic line
A Smaller Safety Lancet for Smaller Hands
Standard lancets assume a standard hand, and a real testing program includes staff and settings where that assumption fails. The Lite design answers with a compact housing that smaller hands can hold securely and fire with confidence. All three models use a fine 28G needle, and the depth ladder of 1.4, 1.8, and 2.2 mm lets the care team match the stick to skin thickness and sample need. Colors mirror the Classic line’s logic, so a program running both designs keeps one selection habit. Each device is single use, with the used sharp kept out of circulation the moment the sample is taken. Boxes hold 100 lancets, sized for clinics, schools, and home testing programs that want the smaller format.
Features and Benefits
Fit and Grip

Sampling Choices
- Three Depths, One Gauge – depth is the only variable across the Lite range, which simplifies training

Why Programs Add the Lite Design
Comfort with a lancet is partly the stick and partly the grip, and grip fails quietly until samples suffer. The Lite housing fixes the ergonomic half of the problem for smaller hands without changing the safety story. Programs keep one brand, one color logic, and two sizes of device.
- Better Grip, Better Samples – a secure hold means a confident stick and fewer repeat punctures
- Gentler Gauge Choice – the all 28G range suits frequent testers and finer skin
- Training Stays Simple – depth colors match the Classic line, so one selection habit covers both devices
- Same Trusted Maker – the Lite comes from the line with more than a billion devices sold since 2000
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the Lite design made for?
The manufacturer describes it as the smaller SurgiLance, ideal for users with small hands. It suits any setting where the standard housing feels oversized for the person firing it.
How is it different from the Classic models?
The housing is smaller and every Lite model uses a 28G needle. The Classic range is larger, spans 21G and 28G needles plus 18G blades, and reaches deeper and higher flow models.
Which depths can I choose from?
The Lite range offers 1.4 mm in yellow, 1.8 mm in gray, and 2.2 mm in orange. Depth choice follows the sample volume and skin the care team is working with.
How many lancets are in a box?
Each Lite model packs 100 single use lancets per box. All three models on this page are sold by the box as listed.
Are Lite lancets single use?
Yes, each device is used once and discarded into sharps. The single use format is core to the safety design of the whole SurgiLance line.
