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 work station.
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 verastility 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 bugpin 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)
Paired with the Brass offset grip these tips make the set-up swift and efficient. These tips and offset grip have giving me better control and vision while lining and shading! With a hybrid tip being in between a round and a diamond, the ink flow, and needle stability are definitely noticeable over standard disposables. DK has invented a true game changer for me!

Best disposable tips ever!
The tips along with the weight of the grip make things balanced and feel great in the hand.
Ink flow is great as well.
Thanks to everyone at WHI for helping with getting these out to us. And of course thanks to DK for making it happen too.
