Description
The El Cartel V2 Tattoo Cartridges 0.30 – 14RL Medium Taper (10 count) are designed for tattoo artists seeking powerful, consistent lines combined with control and precision. This V2/2.0 generation is the result of extensive field feedback and delivers significant improvements in safety, fit, and line consistency. Featuring a 0.30 needle gauge and a 14 Round Liner (RL) configuration with a medium taper (RLM), these cartridges are ideal for crisp linework, clear outlines, and even ink saturation across medium to larger lines.
WHAT'S NEW – EL CARTEL 2.0. The V2 cartridges are available in two taper types : RLL (long taper) and RLM (medium taper) . The medium taper version ensures faster and fuller ink flow, so lines are instantly drawn and retain their shape. In addition, the cartridges are equipped with a reinforced membrane that provides extra safety during tattooing and helps prevent ink or blood backflow into the machine.
IMPROVED FIT & STABILITY. The cartridge housing has been redesigned to better fit various machines. This makes insertion and removal easier and ensures stable operation, even during long sessions and intensive linework. The needle tip has been improved for a tighter fit, resulting in less vibration, greater control, and a predictable workflow.
FAST RECOGNITION IN SETUP. Based on feedback from professionals, El Cartel introduces a color-coded identification system for RL and RS cartridges . This allows you to see at a glance which type of cartridge you're using, increasing speed and clarity in your workflow. The cartridge is finished with the recognizable octopus logo on the housing, a visual hallmark of V2 quality.
All cartridges are sterilely packaged and have a shelf life of up to 5 years . They are compatible with all machines with a cartridge grip , making them easy to use in virtually any professional tattoo setup.
