.018"-Thick Flat Tattoo Back Spring Made of Blue Carbon Steel
Each of these Precision brand tattoo back springs is made from .018"-thick blue carbon steel. Their innovative design controls where the springs flex within a working armature assembly. Both ends of this tattoo back spring is pronged to allow you to easily insert it into your conventional armature assembly and mount it to your tattoo machine frame.
Our Precision .018" thick blue carbon steel tattoo back springs are sold flat to ensure there's no loss of temper in the steel, so you'll get perfect springs every time.
