Complete guide: Set of 50 Silicone Skeleton caps 12mm Grass Green
This set contains 50 silicone ink caps with a diameter of 12 mm, featuring a skeleton-shaped stabilized base and a skull-shaped cap, in Grass Green color. Ink caps are used by tattoo artists to hold small amounts of ink directly on the work station during a session. Being made of silicone rather than rigid plastic, they have a more adherent base on the table and better absorb the vibration of the needle, which reduces the risk of ink splashing out of the cap upon accidental lateral contact. The green color is especially useful for artists who visually codify caps on the station, for example to separate color inks from black or gray ones.
How to use
- Prepare and disinfect the work surface before placing the caps on it, as with any consumable used near the tattooing area.
- Remove from the set only the number of ink caps needed for that session's color palette — one cap per color/shade.
- Place each ink cap with the skeleton base on the table; the adhesive silicone ridges provide stable grip and reduce the risk of tipping over during work.
- Pour into each ink cap only the amount of ink necessary for the current working portion, to avoid waste and contamination of the remaining ink in the bottle.
- While dipping the needle, keep it as vertical as possible and avoid repeated lateral contact with the edge of the cap.
- If working with multiple shades simultaneously, keep the ink caps logically grouped on the station (e.g., green for colors) to avoid accidentally mixing inks.
- At the end of the session, dispose of all used ink caps according to your studio's sharps/biological waste protocol — they are single-use consumables.
- Do not reuse a cap already used on a client, even if there is ink left in it.
Tips from us
- Use color coding to your advantage: reserve green for color inks and another color for black/gray, to reduce confusion in sessions with many shades.
- Estimate in advance how many ink caps you need for a complex session, so you don't have to interrupt work to open a new cap during tattooing.
- Store the unused set in a clean, dry place, away from dust, until use.
- Being flexible, silicone does not break if dropped, but still handle the caps carefully to avoid spilling the ink already poured.
- Visually inspect each ink cap before placing it on the station to ensure it is clean and undamaged.
Frequently asked questions
Can these caps be washed and reused?▾
No. Like any ink cap, regardless of material, they are designed for single use — they are thrown away after each client/session, not washed for reuse.
What is the difference compared to classic plastic caps?▾
Being silicone, they are softer and better absorb needle vibration, which reduces the risk of ink splashing out of the cap when the needle touches the edge — something more common with rigid plastic caps. Additionally, the silicone 'skeleton' base adheres better to the table than a smooth plastic base.
Why should I choose green color and not black?▾
The choice is mainly functional: many artists use different colored caps to visually code the inks on their work station — for example, green for color inks, another color for black/gray — to reduce the risk of confusion in a session with many shades.
Is the 12mm diameter suitable for any amount of ink?▾
12mm is a common size for small to medium ink portions, sufficient for most current applications. The product data does not specify other diameters available in this variant, so if you need larger caps for large amounts of ink, check the product range separately.
Is a set of 50 pieces enough for how many sessions?▾
It depends on the color complexity of the work — a session with many shades consumes more caps than one with one or two colors, so the exact number of sessions covered by the 50 pieces varies from case to case.
Do they work with black ink as well, not just color inks?▾
Yes, the cap works identically regardless of the color of the ink poured into it. Grass Green is the color of the cap itself, usually used for visual coding on the station, not a restriction related to the type of ink.
