Description
The SurgiLance Safety Lancets are single use capillary blood sampling devices with the needle or blade concealed before and after the stick. Seven Classic models span three gauges and depths from 1.0 to 2.8 mm, each color coded so staff grab the right flow rate without reading fine print.
- Concealed Before and After – the needle or blade stays hidden inside the housing until firing and returns after, so the sharp is never exposed on the tray
- Color Coded Models – yellow, lime, gray, orange, pink, green, and blue housings map to depth and flow at a glance
- Needle and Blade Options – 21G and 28G needles serve routine testing while 18G blades deliver the higher volumes microcollection needs
- A Billion Device Track Record – more than a billion SurgiLance devices have sold since 2000, a reliability history few lancets can match
Capillary Blood Sampling Built Around the Fingerstick
Fingersticks look simple until a program runs hundreds of them a week across glucose checks, hematocrit tubes, and geriatric panels. This Classic line organizes that work into seven models whose colors carry the specification, from the shallow 1.0 mm yellow for geriatric glucose testing up to the 2.8 mm pink for hematocrit collection. Low flow models draw 5 to 20 microliters for standard glucose work, medium flow reaches 20 to 40 microliters, and the high flow blade models deliver up to 150 microliters into microcollection tubes. Each device is single use with a safe, concealed sharp, which keeps the post stick routine to a simple sharps drop. MediPurpose positions the design as easy to use and pain minimizing, two qualities patients on daily testing notice immediately. Most models pack 100 to a box, and the lime 28G also sells by the case of 1,500 for high volume programs.
Features and Benefits
Safety and Handling
- Single Use Design – each lancet fires once and is discarded, ending any cross patient reuse question
- Pain Minimizing Stick – the manufacturer designed the firing action around patient comfort for repeat testing
- Eco Friendly Design – the housing design is part of the maker’s eco friendly product positioning
Model Selection
- Flow Matched Depths – depth and gauge pairings run from low flow glucose sticks to high flow microcollection draws
- Blade Models Included – the two 18G blade models cut a wider opening for larger volume capillary collection
- Instant Model Recognition – housing colors replace label reading at the point of care, which speeds up busy rounds

Capillary sampling programs stock deep in the lancets and lancing devices category, where the smaller Lite design from the same family also sits. Every model in the line comes from MediPurpose.
Why Sampling Programs Standardize on SurgiLance
A lancet program succeeds on three things: the right flow for the test, a stick patients tolerate, and a sharp that is never loose on the tray. This line was engineered around all three and has the sales history to prove it. Color coding does the quiet work of error prevention every single shift.
- Right Flow, First Stick – seven models mean staff match depth and gauge to the test instead of squeezing a poor sample
- Patients Accept Repeat Testing – a pain minimizing design helps daily glucose programs keep patient cooperation
- No Exposed Sharps – concealment before and after firing keeps trays, pockets, and waste handling safer
- Proven at Scale – a billion plus devices sold since 2000 is the kind of field record purchasing teams look for
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pick the right model?
Match the model to the test and the volume needed, using the color chart in the specifications on this page. Shallow low flow models suit routine glucose checks, and the blade models serve microcollection volumes.
Are these lancets reusable?
No, every SurgiLance device is single use. The sharp stays concealed after firing and the used lancet goes straight to the sharps container.
What is the difference between needle and blade models?
Needle models use 21G or 28G points for standard capillary samples. Blade models use an 18G blade that opens a wider path for higher volume collection into microcollection tubes.
How many lancets come in a box?
Box options hold 100 lancets each. The SLN170 lime model is the exception on this page, sold by the case of 1,500 as 15 boxes of 100.
Which model suits geriatric glucose testing?
The manufacturer guide pairs the SLN100 yellow model, at 1.0 mm depth and low flow, with glucose testing and geriatrics. Care teams make the final selection for each patient.
