DK Swift Tips - 9 to 18 Round (Box of 24 Tips)

New DK Swift Tip System!   This is a new and convenient way to use standard needles with a metal grip to maintain the rigid feel and counterweight of a steel tube. If setup correctly, this system allows for a proper barrier from cross contamination without use of an autoclave. It is still recommended to wipe the grip with a sterilant between uses as you would your workstation.  Quick and easy setup for standard needle on bar use with much less vibration than standard disposable tubes. Less vibration means less harm to your hands, tendons, and overall body stress for greater longevity and health.  Utilizing a metal grip and small click in plastic tips, this system creates much less waste...about 95% less plastic than most disposable grips!  DK Swift Tips - 9 to 18 Round - Box of 24 Tips (Grip Not Included) *Must be used with DK Swift Tip Grip These tips have great visibility and come to a nice point.  The biggest benefit is being able to see more needle even when you don't have a lot of needle hanging out. The shape of the round tips is in between a round and a diamond. That said, it is the best of both worlds.  It allows for maximum versatility and stability for a wider range of sizes. This tip configuration is for your larger round needle groupings. I prefer it for my traditional 9 rounds up to 14. (It still has more room for a larger grouping but would more than likely be for a tight grouping or bug pin if in that 18 Round size.) If using a tight 9, or 11, or in a bug pin configuration, I recommend the 5-11 size These tips are hydrophobic and have an antimicrobial additive in them. That said, you may need to check with your local health dept for protocol on single use plastic products used in the tattooing process.
