Assure Safety Lancets by Sure-Safe

Anyone testing blood glucose several times a day knows the difference a well-designed lancet makes: a clean puncture, an adequate drop of blood on the first try, and no worry about accidental needlestick afterward. The Sure-Safe collection centers on ARKRAY's Assure safety lancets, single-use devices engineered to protect both the person testing and any caregiver handling the used device.

These are 28-gauge lancets with a 1.0 mm penetration depth — a combination suited to routine fingertip sampling where you want reliable flow without an unnecessarily deep stick. Two designs cover most preferences. The Assure Safety Lancets (980128) in light blue feature a twist-off protective safety cap and a contoured fingertip design, ideal for straightforward daily monitoring. The Assure Microflow Lancets (980228) are push-button activated, giving a controlled, spring-loaded trigger that many users find gentler and easier to place precisely — helpful for those with dexterity concerns or needle anxiety.

Every lancet in this line is sterile, individually packaged, and strictly single-use, which matters for infection control: reusing a lancet dulls the needle and raises contamination risk. The permanently retracting or shielded needle mechanism means the sharp is covered before and after activation, reducing exposure for the user and anyone disposing of it. Pair used lancets with a proper sharps container rather than household trash.

Whether you are stocking a home testing kit or a clinical setting, choosing between the twist-cap and push-button styles usually comes down to comfort and how you like to control activation.
