Description
The El Cartel V2 Tattoo Cartridges 0.35 – 1RL Medium Taper (10 count) are designed for tattoo artists who demand absolute precision for ultra-fine linework, micro-details, and razor-sharp outlines. This V2/2.0 generation was developed based on extensive field feedback and delivers significant improvements in safety, stability, and ease of use. With a 0.35 needle gauge and a 1 Round Liner (RL) configuration with medium taper (RLM) , you get instant response, consistent ink flow, and maximum control with every line.
WHAT'S NEW – EL CARTEL 2.0. The V2 cartridges are available in two taper versions : RLL (long taper) and RLM (medium taper) . The medium taper version delivers slightly faster and fuller ink flow, ideal for sharp, clear, and uninterrupted micro-lines. The cartridges also feature a reinforced membrane for added safety during tattooing and to prevent backflow of ink or blood back into the machine.
IMPROVED FIT & STABILITY. The cartridge housing has been redesigned to perfectly fit various machines. This simplifies installation and removal and ensures stable operation, even during prolonged precision work. The needle tip has been improved for a tighter fit, resulting in less vibration, greater control, and a highly 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 instantly recognize the correct cartridge type while working. 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.
