LOTUS - Cartridges - Round Liner / Standard Liner

Lotus Cartridges – Liner – Ultra Small, Fine, Standard are built to meet the highest standards in tattooing.

Ultra Small Liner

• 6 gauge
• 0.20mm polished medium or long taper
• Perfect for tiny fine line work and stippling.

Bugpin Liner

• 8 gauge
• 0.25mm polished medium or long taper needles
• A tighter #8 gauge needle soldered tight enough to create a super sharp line but still achieve optimum ink flow. Perfect for sharp lines and detail.

Fine Liner

• 10 gauge
• 0.30 polished medium taper needles
• A fine #10 gauge needle but with almost the same solder end point as the classic liners. Same grunt as the classic liner without being too big. Tight enough to create a super sharp line but still achieve optimum ink flow. Perfect for small and fine line detail. 

Standard Liner

• 12 gauge
• 0.35mm polished medium taper
• The perfect standard, precision, round liner with a slightly tapered solder and #12 gauge needles. These make super solid lines that feel more sharp and accurate than our classic liner and can be used for any technique. Same as our “Manawa Tapu” liners.

Designed by artists Ryan Ussher and Tom Tom, with input from a global network of working tattooers.

These cartridges are made for experienced hands that value quality, precision, and the feel of real tattooing.

Stripped back to what matters most, we’ve eliminated the gimmicks and focused entirely on performance:

• Clean ink flow
• Perfect tension
• Durability

With reinforced back stems, 316L Japanese steel, a 99.5% needle perfection rate, and years of real-world testing behind them.

Lotus Cartridges deliver the boldest colour, the sharpest lines, and the smoothest shading—with a feel that’s as satisfying as a bar needle.
