Customer FAQs | How To Choose The Right Needles For Yourself

T&T Tattoo Device Inc. strives to make the process of offending your preferred tattoo needle configurations easy. To ensure that you can find everything you want, we’d like to show you how to correctly read our SKUs and coding system.

T&T LABEL INTRO

The following components are described in order of their appearance on the cartridge SKUs:

  • PRODUCT TYPE

T&T has two types of needles:

“A”-T&T Awe Needle

“B”-T&T Max Needle

  • DIAMETER/SIZE 

T&T offers three tattoo needle diameters:

“08”-0.25MM

“10”-0.30MM-Bugpins

“12”-0.35MM-Standard

  • NEEDLE POINTS

The next number you see is the count of needle points in a configuration.

  • CONFIGURATION

RL-Round Liner

RS-Round Shader

M1-Magnum

RM-Round(Curved) Magnum

F-Long Taper Flat

  • LENGTH/TIGHTNESS

Since the tightness of a configuration also depends on its taper length, we identify the taper length or tightness of a liner right after mentioning your chosen configuration:

“T”-Super Tight

“L”-Long Taper

PACKAGING INTRO

T&T Tattoo Device Inc. packages all cartridges based on the manufacturing batch. Every package contains 20 individually packaged and EO-sterilized tattoo needle cartridges in your chosen configuration.

  • If you examine the box, it will give you the following information:
-Quantity of individually packaged cartridges
-SKU number defining the items
-LOT number, which identifies the batch
-Date of production
-Date of expiration
  • Each individual blister-packaged cartridge contains specific instructions and easy-to-read labels. This includes:
-SKU, identifying the type of cartridge you are about to use.
-Expiration date
-Sterilization warning and identifier, which turns orange when the cartridge has undergone sterilization.

TAPER LENGTHS

To ensure that all of your tattooing needs are met, different configurations have different taper sizes:

  • TIGHT LINERS[6-7MM] 
The range between 6-7mm allows it to produce tight configurations for lining and filling out finer details while tattooing.
  • ROUND LINERS[4MM] 
Made with 4mm tapers to ensure a good and tight fit of various needle points that would hold the ink and decrease spillage.
  • SHADERS, MAGNUMS, ROUND MAGNUMS [1.8MM] 
Have a 1.8mm taper size that allows for better ink flow, especially when it comes to thicker lining, shading, and color packing.
  • LONG TAPER MAGNUMS, LONG TAPER ROUND MAGNUMS, FLATS [3.5MM] 

All long taper mags and curved mags, as well as flats, are made with a 3.5mm taper.

SIZED TUBE INTRO

T&T needles, just as traditional needles have specially sized tubes. The following are the cartridge shell numbers with their needle configuration pairings:
