HAWINK 3RL Tattoo Needle Cartridges #12 are sterile, disposable 3-round liner cartridges (X-taper) sold in a box of 50 for consistent line work and easy machine compatibility.

These HAWINK EN05S-50-1203RL cartridges combine medical-grade materials, a sealed membrane and a semi-transparent housing to give tattoo artists a reliable single-use option for crisp lining. Each cartridge is EO gas sterilized and individually packaged; tips are stainless steel while the plastic components use high-quality, medical-grade polymers and silicone for needle stability. They are designed for broad compatibility with rotary and coil machines, including Hawk systems and grips.

What makes the 3RL X-taper design suitable for lining?

The 3-round liner (3RL) groups three needles into a tight round configuration that concentrates pigment and creates sharp, controlled lines. The X-taper profile provides a slightly extended taper that balances pigment flow with penetration control, helping artists achieve consistent lines without excessive trauma.

• 3 tightly grouped needles for clear, defined lines
• X-taper helps steady pigment delivery and edge sharpness
• Ideal for outlining, detailing small text and fine work

How does the cartridge prevent ink backflow and keep the machine clean?

Each cartridge includes a built-in membrane barrier that blocks ink and fluid from reaching the machine or grip. This barrier reduces cross-contamination risk and keeps internal components cleaner over the course of a session, simplifying cleanup and maintenance.

• Factory-installed membrane seals cartridge to prevent backflow
• Semi-transparent housing allows visual monitoring of ink and needle action
• Disposable single-use design eliminates sterilization concerns between clients

Are these cartridges compatible with my equipment and how easy are they to use?

HAWINK cartridges are built to fit most standard rotary and coil tattoo machines, plus Hawk-brand grips and machines. The snap-fit connection is quick to attach and remove, making setup faster and reducing downtime between clients.

• Compatible with most rotary and coil machines and Hawk systems
• Push-fit mounting for fast cartridge changes
• Clear housing and bevel tips make needle positioning simple

What materials are used and how are the cartridges packaged?

Needle tips are crafted from 316-grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance, while the rest of the assembly uses 304 stainless steel and medical-grade plastics. High-quality silicone cushions the needle shaft to preserve elasticity and consistent travel. Each cartridge is EO-gas sterilized, individually blister-packed, and supplied in a box of 50 for studio convenience.

• 316 stainless steel needle tip with 304 stainless components
• Medical-grade plastic body and silicone damping for smooth performance
• 100% EO gas sterilized and single-use packaging, box of 50
