Make changing your threadless piercing jewellery easier with this Surgical Steel Threadless Piercing Taper. Designed to help guide compatible push-fit posts smoothly through an established piercing, the slim 30mm taper gives you greater control when lining up and inserting threadless studs.

✨ Why You'll Love It

✔ Made for Threadless Jewellery: The small connecting pin fits into compatible hollow threadless posts, helping keep your jewellery aligned as it follows the taper through the piercing.

✔ Three Gauge Options: Available in 20G (0.8mm), 18G (1.0mm) or 16G (1.2mm), so you can choose the taper that matches your existing piercing and jewellery.

✔ Makes Jewellery Changes Easier: The gradual 30mm taper helps guide threadless posts through an established piercing with greater control, making fiddly jewellery changes more straightforward.

💎 The Detail

Small, simple and incredibly useful, this Threadless Piercing Taper is designed to take some of the frustration out of changing push-fit jewellery. The smooth tapered shape helps guide the tool through an established piercing, while the connecting pin keeps a compatible threadless post aligned as it follows into position.

Crafted from durable 316L surgical steel, the taper measures 30mm long and is available in 20 gauge (0.8mm), 18 gauge (1.0mm) or 16 gauge (1.2mm). Sold individually and designed for compatible threadless piercing posts. Always choose the same gauge as your jewellery, use only with established piercings and never force the taper through resistance or pain. This tool is designed to assist with jewellery insertion and is not intended to create or stretch a piercing.

💡 Sizing Tip Gauge numbers work in reverse — the lower the gauge number, the thicker the jewellery.
