Description
El Cartel Tattoo Cartridges 0.30 – 17 Soft Edge Magnum (10 pieces) are designed for tattoo artists who want controlled and efficient shading, blending, and even filling, while maintaining smooth transitions. The combination of 0.30 needle size and 17 Soft Edge Magnum offers an excellent balance between coverage and precision, making these cartridges ideal for medium to larger areas where a clean yet soft finish is desired. El Cartel was founded to supply high-quality needles for the most demanding professionals.
QUALITY MATTERS. Thanks to new technology, high-quality materials, and strict quality control, El Cartel has developed next-gen tattoo cartridges that run smoothly and feel predictable, even during long tattoo sessions. The cartridges support smooth ink injection and ensure a constant, even flow. The needles stay sharp even with intensive use, resulting in more efficient work and a consistent end result with fewer corrections.
SAFETY FIRST. For safety and hygiene, El Cartel uses a durable, elastic membrane in its cartridges. This membrane helps prevent backflow and leakage of ink or blood back into the machine. This keeps your setup cleaner and provides extra protection for your grip and machine – a key advantage in any professional tattoo studio.
The redesigned tube/tip shape is designed to hold more ink , which immediately contributes to higher efficiency. Dipping less often means a more consistent speed and more focus on technique and finishing. The soft-edge placement supports smooth blending , making shading look softer and transitions smooth.
All cartridges are sterilely packaged and have a shelf life of up to 5 years . They work with all machines equipped with a cartridge grip , making them easy to use in virtually any professional tattoo setup.
