About the Cartridge

CLEAN:

Ink Regulator & Anti-Ink Droplet MechanismThe capillary hole near the tip, combined with a slender needle nozzle, regulates ink pressure at the needle tip and prevents ink from accumulating into droplets. This ensures long-lasting consistent ink flow, eliminates ink pooling or splatter, and delivers clean stencils and crisp lines.

STABLE:

V-shaped Needle Guide & Banded Stabilizing MembraneDual slanted ridges on the safety membrane press the needle shaft against the upper and lower V-shaped guides, offering a similar but enhanced feel to a rubber band securing a needle on bar. The zero-clearance design eliminates wobbling and inconsistent ink flow, significantly reducing ink spitting.
