Description
El Cartel Tattoo Cartridges 0.30 – 21 Soft Edge Magnum (10 count) are designed for tattoo artists who want to work quickly and consistently on larger areas while maintaining control and smooth transitions. With a 0.30 needle gauge and a powerful 21 Soft Edge Magnum configuration, this is an excellent choice for shading, blending, and even filling, efficiently creating coverage without harsh edges. El Cartel was founded to provide high-quality needles for the most demanding tattoo professionals, with reliable performance in every session.
QUALITY MATTERS. Thanks to new technology, high-quality materials, and stringent quality control, El Cartel has developed next-gen tattoo cartridges that run smoothly and feel predictable, even during long tattoo sessions. You'll benefit from consistent flow, less resistance, and a cartridge that helps you work smoothly without unnecessary interruptions. The needles support smooth ink injection and stay sharp during intensive use, contributing to a cleaner finish and fewer corrections.
SAFETY FIRST. For safety and hygiene, the cartridges are equipped with a durable, elastic membrane . This membrane helps prevent backflow and leakage of ink or blood back into the machine. This keeps your setup cleaner and protects your grip and machine better – a key advantage for any professional studio.
The redesigned tube/tip shape is designed to hold more ink . This reduces dips and improves efficiency, especially with larger shading areas or when you want to maintain a consistent pace. This helps you maintain your rhythm, work faster, and focus on technique and finishing. The soft-edge placement also supports smooth blending , so transitions appear softer and your work looks more professional.
Each cartridge is sterilely packaged and has a shelf life of up to 5 years . They work with all machines equipped with a cartridge grip , making them easy to integrate into virtually any professional tattoo setup.
