Description
EL CARTEL 9RS Round Shader 0.35 mm cartridges are made for tattoo artists working with colour, shading and large fill areas in intensive daily studio work.
EL CARTEL was founded to supply high-quality needles to the most demanding tattoo artists. Thanks to new technologies, high-grade materials and strict quality control, EL CARTEL has created a new generation of cartridges used by professionals across Europe.
The RS (Round Shader) cartridge with a 0.35 mm needle is designed for colour work, heavier shading and fast coverage of areas. The thicker needle ensures intense colour saturation and smooth ink flow - a direct benefit for artists who need bold transitions and deep tones without extra passes.
The flexible, durable membrane protects the machine from ink or blood leaking in - meeting hygiene standards and extending the equipment's service life. The new tube shape holds more ink in each cartridge, so fewer breaks are needed for refilling - especially important when working on medium and large areas. High-grade materials keep the needles sharp throughout the procedure and ensure even ink injection.

Frequently asked questions
What is the 9RS (Round Shader) cartridge for?
RS is a round needle configuration for shading and fill, not for outlines. The 9RS 0.35 mm suits deep shading and soft black & grey work, colour fill, faster coverage of medium and larger areas, highlights and transitions.
What makes the 0.35 mm diameter special for shading?
The thicker needle gives more intense colour saturation and reduces the number of passes needed when covering larger areas.
Will these cartridges fit my machine?
According to the manufacturer, the cartridges are compatible with most pen-style machines and grips, so there is no need to replace your existing equipment. The protective membrane prevents ink and blood from getting into the machine.
How many cartridges are in a pack and how long can they be stored?
Each pack contains 10 sterile cartridges with a shelf life of up to 5 years, so a studio can buy a larger quantity to keep in stock.
Can I see the ink level while working?
Yes, the housing is transparent: you can see the needle movement and the ink flow, so the ink level can be checked without stopping the procedure. The tube shape holds more ink, so refilling is needed less often.
