DK Swift Tips - 13 Mag (Box of 24 Tips)
Regular price$28.00 USD
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 - 13 Mag - 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 mag tip allows for mor visibility at the end of the tip. The side wall is beveled back so there is no excess material on the edges. This allows for getting a more precise "cut in" near lines and tight spaces.
Fits 9 mags.
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. (such as ink caps)
*Blister packaged tips coming soon

Why bamboo instead of wood? Deforestation is a real threat to our planet's ecosystem and using bamboo instead of wood helps detour unnecessary use of a vital natural resource. Bamboo...
Matures nine times faster than other trees
Releases 35% more oxygen than other trees
Is 2-3 times harder than most wood including oak!
Helps control erosion as it makes a strong water barrier
Is naturally resilient and doesn't need any pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers to protect it or help it thrive (this saves the earth from harmful pesticides)

Dan Kubin Weighted Impact Screw Kit
Regular price$15.00 USD
Dan Kubin Weighted Impact Screw Kit
"New updated weighted impact screw! I found that it helps with the stability of the hit and improved overall performance. Also, please note the rubber band position is another simple tuning element. For lower volt operations, or harder hit, position the band pointing slightly up. This will reduce return spring tension thus making it operate better at slower speeds and decreasing the amount of give. Bonus is less strain on the rubber band."
Thanks - Dan
Weighted Impact Kit Specifications:
Upgrade for Dan Kubin V3R with updated armature bar (Late 2019 to 2022)
Custom heat treated tool steel RHC 60 plus o-ring
Easy swap out to increase the hit while improving the overall feel and sound
Kit also includes both the 1.5mm and 2mm L wrench
Upgrade Step by Step: (see pictures for guidance)
Use the 1.5mm wrench to loosen the set screw on the side of the armature bar. Half a turn should loosen it enough to easily remove the impact screw.
Hold down the armature bar and use the 2mm wrench to remove the old impact screw.
Once removed, use the 1.5mm wrench to insert and tighten the weighted impact screw down until the o-ring starts to bulge out as it makes contact with the top of the armature.
Tuning - this is the most important step and will affect the timing and stroke of your machine.
While holding the armature bar down, roll the cam back until it makes contact with the vertical spring and gently stops. In this position the timing mark on the cam should align with the center of the timing mark on the frame.
If the timing mark on the cam is on the low side of the timing mark on the frame, tighten the weighted impact a little until it raises up to the center of the timing mark on the frame.
If the timing mark on the cam is on the high side, the impact is too far in and needs to be backed out (loosened) until the timing mark on the cam is in the center of the timing mark on the frame.
Use the 1.5mm wrench to tighten the set screw on the side of the armature bar.
Your machine is now upgraded and ready to use. One note would be that the new impact works well with the rubber band pulled slightly higher on the needle bar, so it is perpendicular when the armature is in the down position.
