💎 The Detail
Small but incredibly useful, this Piercing Insertion Taper is designed to make changing compatible externally threaded jewellery more controlled and straightforward. The gradually tapered shape helps guide the tool through an established piercing before your jewellery is connected and carefully drawn into position.
Crafted from 316L surgical steel and sold individually, the taper measures 30mm long and is available in 18 gauge (1.0mm), 16 gauge (1.2mm) or 14 gauge (1.6mm). Choose the gauge that matches your jewellery and piercing. Designed for use with compatible externally threaded studs, barbells, nipple bars and belly bars in established piercings; never force the taper if you experience resistance or pain.
