McKesson 30 Gauge Pressure-Activated Safety Lancets (100/Box)

How does the pressure-activated safety feature work?

Simply press the lancet firmly against your fingertip — the device activates automatically with pressure, releasing the needle for a quick, consistent stick. The needle retracts immediately after use to help prevent accidental needlestick injuries.

What gauge is this lancet and what does that mean?

This lancet uses a 30 gauge needle with a 1.5mm depth setting. A higher gauge number means a thinner needle — 30 gauge produces a small, precise micro blood flow ideal for diagnostic testing and blood glucose monitoring with minimal discomfort.

Are these lancets compatible with lancing devices?

These are pressure-activated, ready-to-use lancets that do not require loading into a separate lancing device — simply press directly onto the fingertip. They are single-use and should be disposed of safely after each use.

How many lancets come in a box and are they sterile?

Each box contains 100 individually sterile lancets with a tri-bevel tip for added precision. They are not made with natural rubber latex and are shipped with a minimum of 90 days remaining before expiration.
