Description
The El Cartel V2 Tattoo Cartridges 0.30 – 3RL Long Taper (10 pieces) are designed for tattoo artists who require ultimate precision and complete control for fine line work and detailed tattoos. Refined based on intensive feedback from the field, this V2/2.0 generation combines maximum safety, improved stability, and exceptionally accurate ink delivery. Featuring a 0.30 needle gauge and a 3 Round Liner (3RL) configuration with long taper (RLL) , these cartridges are ideal for micro-lines, subtle outlines, dotwork, and high-precision details.
WHAT'S NEW – EL CARTEL 2.0. The V2 cartridges are available in two taper types : RLL (long taper) and RLM (medium taper) . The long taper version has a longer and finer needle point, which ensures controlled penetration, minimal skin irritation, and extremely precise lines. In addition, the cartridges are equipped with a reinforced membrane that provides extra safety during tattooing and effectively prevents ink or blood from flowing back toward the machine.
IMPROVED FIT & STABILITY. The cartridge housing has been completely redesigned to better fit various tattoo machines. This makes insertion and removal easier and ensures stable operation, even during long, focused detail sessions. The needle tip is more precisely fixed, minimizing vibration and ensuring precise line placement.
FAST RECOGNITION IN YOUR WORKFLOW. Based on feedback from professionals, El Cartel introduces a color-coded identification system for RL and RS cartridges . This allows you to instantly recognize the correct cartridge type, increasing speed and clarity in your setup. The cartridge is finished with the recognizable octopus logo on the housing, a visual hallmark of the high-quality V2.
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 any professional tattoo environment.
