New Deluxe Foam Cartridge Grip fits our Membrane Cartridges perfectly and is ergonomically comfortable with a 1.5" Soft Foam. 24 Grips per box.
The Black Half Hard Nipples are Dan's most recent version of these custom made grommets, designed to be a little softer to help combat spitting issues some folks have, yet still stronger than standard nipples to hold up to the aggressive nature of hard hitting machines such as his Sidewinder.
The Red Full Hard Nipples are the OG Dan Kubin custom grommets made from the most durable rubber Dan could find. They are extra rigid providing a little more hit PLUS the strength to withstand the aggressive nature of Dan's machines. We are bringing these back again now as many people have requested them and know how to tattoo well with them with no spitting issues.
Both versions are custom MADE IN THE USA. These are the only Tattoo Nipples we know of that are made in the USA. Plus Dan's Thickass Rubbers are the only tattoo rubber bands offered that are made in the USA. It costs more to do this, and it is a bit more challenging, but worth it!

Joshua Bowers Repairable Clip Cord

Designed with function and maintenance in mind, this lightweight clip cord can be repaired quickly and easily! Never find yourself in a situation without a functioning clipboard and no options again.
Highlights:
Light weight non-stick cord material
Brass leads that are replaceable and easily modified to suit your machines or how you like your cord to lay
Long life spring that can be replaced, or repaired
Wires can be removed from lugs to repair shorts that happen from movement.
6 foot length
Very lightweight at a mere 2.45 ounces
Limited 1 Year Warranty covers product defects and not every day wear and tear.
Made in the USA
Some words from Bowers on why he made these clip cords:
A couple years ago I designed this clip cord and built one for myself. The design came from being frustrated with the options that were on the market. When I designed these clip cords I had a list of demands. -This cord HAD to be repairable, quickly and easily. -lightweight -no-stick, flexible cord -brass or copper leads Every part of the clip cord end can be replaced or repaired quickly and easily. Even comes with the parts and tools to do it! You will not be left struggling with a short in your cord, no backup and rummaging around looking for your best broken cord to finish or do the tattoo. The cord is a matte non stick material that glides smoothly along surfaces, it is NOT a 5 lb clip cord you’re hooking up to 3 oz. machine, the brass leads will not groove your binding posts nearly as fast as the standard steel leads found on most clip cords. I’m excited about this new product and to able to finally share it with all of you.
Black Stallion Pure Black - Great for Lining, solid black color fills, or cutting into for grey wash blends! Super dark, super opaque, goes in with ease and cleans up easy.
Made up of Carbon Black, Distilled Water, Alcohol, and Vegan Glycerin. Simple and safe ingredients for healthy tattoos.
This is a collaborative project between Stable Color and Waverly Color Company to produce a solid black ink specially formulated for tattooing. Black Stallion is an in-between with some similarities to Talens and Waverly Dark Black. Many thanks to Bill for mixing up such an excellent black for us!!

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 - 5 to 11 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 medium round needle groupings.
I prefer it for my straight 5 rounds up to straight 9RL, or a tight or bug pin 11 Round. (if using a traditional 11 Round, I recommend the 9-18 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. (such as ink caps)
