XACT - Round Shader - #12 Standard

XACTneedle™ Cartridge – Classic Round Shader #12

Bold shading. Solid fills. A classic choice for timeless results.

The #12 Classic Round Shader is designed for artists who prefer a traditional feel with maximum saturation. Featuring a larger 0.35 mm grouping, this cartridge lays down more ink per pass, making it ideal for bold fills, rich color packing, and classic shading styles. Built with the same medical-device precision as the rest of the XACTneedle™ line, each cartridge uses precision-ground Japanese stainless steel and our custom-engineered mould for stable, consistent performance. The result: strong shading and solid coverage with a smooth, reliable hand feel.

Why artists choose #12 RS Classic

• Proprietary membrane prevents backflow into grip/machine.
