Tattoo Needle Cartridges

• Single Use Only: Never reuse cartridges — they are designed for one session only to prevent contamination and infection.
• Inspect Before Use: Always check the seal and packaging integrity before opening.
• Proper Disposal: Dispose used cartridges in a designated sharps container according to local biohazard regulations.
• Avoid Counterfeits: Choose certified suppliers — poor quality needles can cause inconsistent performance and skin issues.

Neebol offers several professional tattoo cartridge needle lines designed to meet different tattooing techniques and workflow preferences:

• Iris Pro Tattoo Needles – Feature a rubberized grip with a built-in finger rest for improved control and reduced hand fatigue. Available in both mixed needle assortments and single needle configurations, making them suitable for detailed line work, shading, and long sessions.
• Iris Tattoo Needles – A versatile cartridge line offered primarily in mixed needle groupings, ideal for artists who want flexibility across lining and shading without switching product series.
• Flame Tattoo Needles – Designed for stable performance and smooth ink flow, mixed needle configurations make Flame cartridges a practical choice for everyday tattoo work and practice sessions.

Each cartridge line is developed with specific artist needs in mind, focusing on consistency, control, and predictable ink delivery. These tattoo needle cartridges are tested for balance and reliability to support clean lines, smooth shading, and efficient color saturation.

For artists who are unsure which needle types or sizes best suit their style, Neebol tattoo cartridge variety packs are recommended. Variety packs include multiple needle groupings and sizes, allowing artists to test compatibility with different machines, inks, and tattoo techniques before committing to a single configuration.

How do tattoo cartridge needles differ from traditional tattoo needles?

Tattoo cartridge needles differ from traditional tattoo needles in that they are pre-built and include an internal membrane or tension system. Traditional needles require separate tubes and grips, while cartridge needles offer faster setup, easier changes, and improved contamination control.

What is the membrane in tattoo needles used for?

The membrane in tattoo cartridge needles prevents ink and fluids from flowing back into the tattoo machine. This helps protect the motor, maintain consistent needle movement, and improve overall hygiene during tattooing.

Are tattoo needles compatible with all tattoo machines?

Most tattoo cartridge needles are compatible with standard pen-style and rotary tattoo machines. Neebol tattoo cartridge needles are fully compatible with all Neebol tattoo machines and can also be used with most machines from other major brands.

Can tattoo gun needles be reused?

No, tattoo cartridge needles are designed for single use only. Reusing cartridge needles increases the risk of infection, dull needles, and inconsistent performance.

How to Choose the Right Tattoo Needles

Choosing the right needle depends on style, technique, and tattoo size.

• For crisp lines → start with Round Liners.
• For shading and fades → Round Shaders or Curved Magnums deliver soft transitions.
• For large solid areas → Magnums help with efficient color saturation.

Beginner artists often start with sizes like 5RL (for line work) and 7M1 (for shading/color) to build confidence across techniques.
