Pin Taper 14G for Internally Threaded and Threadless Jewelry

Complete guide: Pin Taper 14G for Internally Threaded and Threadless Jewelry

The 14G threaded insertion taper is used to guide jewelry through a piercing, connecting the piece directly to the threaded end. It fits both internally threaded and threadless jewelry, and can be autoclave sterilized for reuse or used once, according to the manufacturer and studio protocol.

How to use

1. Sterilize the taper in an autoclave before first use and after each client, if you choose to reuse it.
2. Connect the jewelry (internally threaded or threadless) to the threaded end of the taper, ensuring a firm fit.
3. Gently insert the tip of the taper through the piercing opening, guiding the jewelry behind it.
4. Advancing gently, transfer the jewelry through the channel until it reaches the desired position.
5. Unscrew or detach the taper from the jewelry, leaving the piece correctly secured.
6. Check the jewelry's stability and sanitize the area according to standard procedures.

Tips from us

• Always check the compatibility of the jewelry's thread with that of the taper (1.2 mm) before the procedure.
• For threadless jewelry, make sure the pin fits correctly and does not force the thread.
• Keep the taper in a sterile environment until use, especially if reusing it.
• In hard-to-reach areas, the 1-inch length provides better control without discomforting the client.
• If you notice wear or damage to the thread, replace the taper immediately to prevent discomfort.
