Complete guide: Set of 50 Killer Ink black silicone caps 12mm

Ink caps are small, single-use containers into which you pour ink before each tattoo session, so you never work directly from the bottle. This set from Killer Ink contains 50 black silicone pieces with a diameter of 12mm — the size considered the most versatile, suitable from linework to moderate shading. The flexible silicone base naturally adheres to the work surface, so you don't need a separate holder and the risk of tipping is noticeably reduced compared to classic plastic caps. It's a compact format, suitable for solo artists, small studios, or as a backup for conventions and guest spots.

How to use

  1. Prepare your work station: disinfect the surface and cover it with a disposable protective barrier, following your hygiene routine.
  2. With clean gloves, remove from the jar only the number of caps you need for the session — typically between 3 and 8, depending on how many colors you use.
  3. Place the caps on the work surface; the silicone base adheres on its own, without additional accessories, so no further fixing is needed.
  4. Pour ink into each cap, one color per cap, without filling them to the brim — the 12mm capacity is designed for moderate amounts without waste.
  5. Work normally, dipping the needles into the caps throughout the session; the black silicone provides good contrast so you can clearly see the ink.
  6. At the end of the session, discard all used caps along with the rest of the single-use consumables — do not wash or reuse them.
  7. Close the jar with the remaining caps and store it in a clean, dry place, away from dust.

Tips from us

  • Estimate the number of colors before you start and put out one or two extra caps — it's better than stopping mid-work to prepare more.
  • Never pour leftover ink from the cap back into the bottle: once it's at the work station, it is considered contaminated.
  • The 12mm size covers most styles, from linework to moderate shading; if you do large color fills, you might prefer larger caps for the main color.
  • Place the caps on a flat, stable surface — silicone adheres well, but an organized station further reduces the risk of spills.
  • With a typical consumption of 3-8 caps per session, the 50-piece set covers approximately 6-16 sessions; if you have a steady workload, the 250-piece version is more economical in the long run.
  • The compact format is ideal for packing in a convention or guest spot kit, as a backup for when the main stock runs out unexpectedly.
Warning: The caps are single-use consumables: they must be discarded after each client, along with the protective barrier and other consumables. Reusing them — even if 'washed' or disinfected — creates a risk of cross-contamination and violates hygiene standards in a professional studio. Handle them only with gloves and never return ink from the cap back into the original bottle.

Frequently asked questions

Can I reuse the silicone caps if I wash or disinfect them?

No. Although silicone seems like a durable material, these caps are designed as single-use products. After each client, all used caps are discarded, regardless of how much ink remains in them. Reuse creates a risk of cross-contamination and is not accepted in professional practice — each client must receive new caps, taken from the jar at the start of the session.

Are they compatible with any ink brand?

Yes, Killer Ink caps work with all tattoo ink brands. Silicone does not chemically interact with pigments and does not alter the ink's properties, so you can safely use them with any ink you already have in the studio. They are universal consumables — you don't need to match them with a specific brand.

Why would I choose 12mm over another size?

12mm is considered the industry standard size because it offers the right balance between capacity and waste: large enough for moderate amounts of ink, small enough not to waste expensive ink at the end of the session. It covers most styles, from linework to moderate shading. For beginners, it's the safest choice, and for experienced artists, it remains the basic size, supplemented as needed with other sizes for heavy color work.

How are they better than classic plastic caps?

The main difference is stability: the flexible silicone base naturally adheres to the work surface, so you no longer have to worry about bumping the edge of a cap and tipping it over. Even if a cap is knocked, the flexible silicone limits spillage compared to rigid plastic. The price is slightly higher than plastic, but a single avoided ink spill can cover the cost difference of the entire set.

How many sessions does the 50-piece set last?

With an average consumption of 3-8 caps per session, the set covers roughly 6-16 sessions, depending on how many colors you use per job. For a solo artist or a small studio with moderate activity, it's a practical format; if you work daily with many colors, the 250-piece set of the same range becomes more cost-effective per piece.

How should I store them correctly in the studio?

Keep the jar closed, in a clean, dry place away from the actual work area, and only remove caps with gloves when setting up the station. This way, the remaining caps in the jar do not come into contact with ink splashes or other sources of contamination, and the set maintains its hygiene until the last piece.
