Black Label Comfort Grip

Every Flow Carts Black Label cartridge features an integrated Comfort Grip.

The grip provides a more substantial surface for holding the cartridge while tattooing, giving you a comfortable and secure feel in the hand.

This can be particularly useful during longer tattoo sessions where consistent handling and control are important.

The Comfort Grip is part of the Black Label cartridge design, so there is no separate grip component to fit before use.

Choose Your Gauge and Grouping

Flow Carts Black Label cartridges are available in different needle gauges and grouping sizes, depending on the cartridge configuration.

Available gauges

• 08 Gauge

• 10 Gauge

• 12 Gauge

Some configurations have specific gauge restrictions.

For example:

MG Magnum – 12 Gauge only
RS Round Shader – 12 Gauge only

Always check the available options on the individual product before ordering, as not every gauge and grouping combination is available across the complete Black Label range.

Available grouping sizes

Depending on the configuration, Black Label cartridges are available in grouping sizes including:

03 • 05 • 07 • 09 • 11 • 14 • 18

The available grouping sizes vary between configurations.

What Do the Numbers Mean?

The gauge refers to the diameter of the individual tattoo needle.

The grouping size refers to how many individual needles are contained within the configuration.

For example:

03 RL = 3 needles arranged as a Round Liner configuration.

07 RL = 7 needles arranged as a Round Liner configuration.

The final line or shading result is affected by more than needle grouping alone. Machine settings, hand speed, needle depth, ink, technique and the individual artist all affect the finished result.

Designed for Everyday Tattooing

The Black Label range is designed to give artists a selection of commonly used cartridge configurations without needing to use a different cartridge system for every part of a tattoo.

Use RL and SRL configurations when your work requires controlled linework and detail.

Choose RS when you need a round shader configuration for shading and smaller fill areas.

Choose MG when you need a magnum configuration for larger areas of shading or colour packing.

Choose SE Soft Edge Magnum when you want a soft-edge magnum option for shading and blending.

Having different configurations available means you can select the cartridge that suits the job rather than trying to make one configuration do everything.

Sterile, Individually Packaged and Single Use

Flow Carts Black Label cartridges are supplied EO sterilised and individually packaged for single use.

Only use a cartridge when the packaging is intact and check the packaging and sterilisation information before use.

Dispose of used cartridges appropriately after each tattoo in accordance with your local clinical and sharps-waste requirements.
