Size Guide

1-5 Round

The Swift Tips 1–5 Round is built for smaller round needle groupings, offering enhanced needle visibility and a refined tip profile that supports both control and precision—especially with minimal needle hang.

 

The tip shape falls between a traditional round and diamond, providing the best of both worlds: improved stability, versatility, and clean sightlines for detailed linework.

Recommended for:

  • Single needle to 5 round liners
  • Also works well with tight or bugpin 7 round configurations

5-11 Round

The Swift Tips 5–11 Round tip is designed to provide a clear view of the needle with a versatile shape that works across a range of medium-sized round groupings. The tip geometry sits between a traditional round and diamond shape—offering increased stability, control, and visibility without sacrificing precision.

This configuration is ideal for:

  • Straight 5 to straight 9 round liners
  • Tight or bugpin 11 round groupings
  • For traditional 11 rounds, consider moving up to the 9–18 size for a better fit

The tip’s tapered profile and open visibility make it easy to work with less needle hang, while the shape offers smooth ink flow and precise control across a variety of line weights and styles.

9-18 Round

These large round disposable tattoo tips are designed to provide enhanced needle visibility, clean performance, and versatile fit for a range of round shader and liner configurations.

Each tip is shaped between a traditional round and diamond style, offering the best of both worlds—maximum control, improved ink flow, and stable guidance for larger needle groupings.

Ideal for use with:

  • 9 Round to 14 Round traditional groupings
  • Also suitable for tight or bugpin configurations (e.g., 18R, depending on fit)
  • For tight 9s, 11s, or bugpins, consider the 5–11 size tip variant for better fit

7 Magnum

The Swift Tips 7 Mag is designed for artists using 7 magnum needle groupings, providing smooth flow, high visibility, and precise control in a compact footprint. These tips are shaped to enhance line proximity work and small-area shading where accuracy and flow matter most.

Featuring a beveled sidewall, the tip offers unobstructed needle visibility and reduces excess material at the edges—allowing for more precise placement when working near lines or in detailed areas. Even with minimal needle hang, these tips let you see exactly where you're working.

Recommended for:

  • 7 mag needle configurations
  • Soft shading, whip work, color blending in tighter zones

9 Magnum

The Swift Tips 9 Mag is engineered for visibility, precision, and smooth ink flow when working with 9 magnum needle groupings. The tip is shaped for better control, especially in tight areas where clean edges and accuracy matter most.

The beveled sidewall design eliminates excess material at the edges of the tip, making it easier to cut in near lines or work around detailed areas without visual obstruction. With a sharp taper and clear view of the needle, artists can operate confidently—even with minimal needle hang.

Recommended for:

  • 9 mag needle configurations
  • Precision whip shading, soft color blends, and packing into tight spaces
