Complete guide: Set of 4 cams for the Inkjecta X1
This set contains 4 cams (eccentrics) for Inkjecta Flite X1 and Flite Nano rotary tattoo machines, with strokes of 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, and 4 mm. The cam controls the needle stroke length — how far the needle moves back and forth with each motor rotation — so by changing it, you adjust the machine's working style without changing the machine itself. It is useful for artists who already work with an Inkjecta Flite X1 or Nano and want flexibility between lining, shading, and color packing in the same session.
How to use
- Turn off the machine and remove the needle bar/cartridge before handling the cam.
- Open the cam access according to your Inkjecta machine's manual (Flite X1 or Nano).
- Remove the currently installed cam.
- Choose the appropriate stroke from the 4 options (2.5 / 3 / 3.5 / 4 mm) for the desired technique and insert it, ensuring it seats correctly on the motor shaft.
- Close the access cover and reassemble the needle bar/cartridge.
- Turn on the machine and test the stroke on a practice surface before working on skin.
- Store unused cams clean, dry, and free of lubricant residue.
Tips from us
- Do not use any type of lubricant on the cams — the manufacturer Inkjecta is explicit about this, and non-compliance can void the machine's warranty.
- Test a newly installed cam on a practice surface (artificial skin) before the session to get used to the chosen stroke.
- Keep unused cams clean and dry, protected from dust and ink residue, in the set's packaging.
- Choose the stroke based on your working style — shorter strokes for fine lines and details, longer strokes for shading and color fills — and note your preferred combination for future sessions.
- Check before ordering that you have an Inkjecta Flite Nano or Flite X1 machine — the set is specifically designed for the cam system of these models.
Frequently asked questions
What strokes does the set offer and what are they used for?▾
The set includes 4 cams with strokes of 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, and 4 mm. In tattooing, shorter strokes are generally associated with fine lines and details, while longer strokes are used for shading and large color fills — but the exact choice depends on your working style and the needle.
Which machines is this cam set compatible with?▾
According to the manufacturer, the set is compatible with Inkjecta Flite Nano and Inkjecta Flite X1 tattoo machines. If you have another Inkjecta model, check with us before ordering for the exact compatibility of your machine's cam system.
Can I use lubricant on the cams for smoother operation?▾
No. The manufacturer Inkjecta explicitly states that you should not use any type of lubricant on the cams — this voids the machine's warranty. The cams are designed to work without additional lubrication.
What are the cams made of and where do they come from?▾
The standard Inkjecta cams are made of chrome for durability. They are handmade in Australia — Inkjecta manufactures all machines and components exclusively there, without outsourcing.
Is it difficult to change the cam on the machine?▾
The Inkjecta system allows cam changes without special tools: turn off the machine, remove the needle bar, open the cam access according to the manual, change the cam, and reassemble the needle bar. For the exact steps to open the cover, follow your specific machine's manual (Flite X1 or Nano), as the details may differ slightly between models.
Is the set a consumable that needs frequent replacement?▾
No — the cams are a reusable mechanical part, not a consumable. With proper care (no lubricant, dry cleaning), they can be used long-term; the manufacturer does not specify a fixed replacement interval.
