Complete guide: Foot Pedal Round
A circular foot pedal that starts and stops the tattoo machine, leaving both hands free during work. It connects to the power supply via a 142 cm cable and is suitable for standard tattoo machines. Thanks to 360-degree activation, you can press it from any angle, and the compact 9 x 3 cm size and only 175 g weight make it easy to transport. It is a practical choice for both beginners and as a backup pedal in an experienced artist's kit.
How to use
- Unpack the pedal and visually inspect the cable along its entire length, as well as the plug, before first use.
- Place it on the floor on a flat surface under the work table or chair — the non-slip base keeps it stable in the chosen spot.
- Connect the cable plug (0.5 cm diameter) to the dedicated pedal input of your power supply.
- Turn on the power supply and set the desired voltage from the power supply — the pedal has no adjustments of its own, it works as a switch.
- Press the pedal with your foot to start the machine; thanks to the round shape and 360-degree activation, you can press it from any direction without aligning your foot.
- Release the pedal to stop the machine instantly — for example, when wiping excess ink or changing colors.
- At the end of the session, disconnect it from the power supply, wipe it with surface disinfectant, and store it without tightly bending the cable.
Tips from us
- Test the pedal together with your power supply before the first client session to ensure everything communicates properly.
- Always keep the pedal in the same spot under the work table — the foot reflex becomes natural and you won't look for the pedal with your eyes during work.
- When moving it, grab the body, not the cable — this protects the connection between the cable and the pedal.
- Due to the compact size and 175 g weight, it is a good candidate for a convention or guest spot bag, including as a backup pedal.
- Periodically check the 142 cm cable along its entire length — tight kinks and cracks in the insulation are the first signs to watch out for.
- Do not stretch the cable to the maximum between the power supply and the pedal; leave a little slack so the plug is not under tension.
Frequently asked questions
Does the pedal fit my power supply?▾
The pedal is designed for standard tattoo machines and connects to the power supply's pedal input via a cable with a 0.5 cm diameter plug. Before ordering, check two things on your power supply: that it has a dedicated pedal (footswitch) input and that it accepts this type of plug. On standard industry power supplies, the connection is direct, without adapters — insert the plug into the pedal port and you're ready to work.
What is the advantage of the round shape over other pedals?▾
360-degree activation. With a classic rectangular pedal, you have to step from a specific direction; with the round one, you can press from the front, side, or back without looking down to align your foot. This is a real advantage when you move your chair around the client during the session. The star-design surface and non-slip base complete the package: the pedal stays in place, and your foot doesn't slip off.
How do I maintain and sanitize the pedal?▾
After each session, disconnect the pedal from the power supply and wipe it with a cloth moistened with standard studio surface disinfectant. Do not submerge it in liquid or spray solution directly on it — moisture can reach the internal mechanism. Periodically check the cable for cracks or kinks and store it without tightly coiling the cable. With this minimal maintenance, a simple pedal like this, without complicated features, remains functional for a long time.
I'm a beginner — is a simple pedal like this enough for me?▾
Yes. A tattoo pedal is essentially a switch: press it — the machine starts, lift your foot — it stops. It has no adjustments of its own and doesn't need them because you set the voltage on the power supply. It is precisely this simplicity that makes it reliable and easy to use from the very first session. Many experienced artists keep such a pedal as a backup, especially since the 9 x 3 cm size and 175 g weight make it easy to carry in a bag.
Is the 142 cm cable enough?▾
For a typical studio setup — the power supply on the work table and the pedal on the floor under the table — the 142 cm easily covers the distance. If your power supply is mounted further from where your foot rests, measure the actual path before ordering. A practical tip: do not leave the cable stretched to the maximum or tensioned at the plug, as constant strain on the connection shortens its life.
Can I work without a pedal?▾
It depends on your power supply: some power supplies have a continuous operation mode where the machine runs without a pedal. However, the pedal gives you control that continuous mode doesn't — you stop the machine in a split second just by lifting your foot, without touching anything with your hands. This is useful when wiping excess ink, changing colors, or the client moves. For many artists, the pedal remains the preferred working mode precisely for this instant control.
