Description

Stretch your piercings with precision using the Calor Style Insertion Taper Set. Made from 304 stainless steel, these tapers are autoclavable, reusable, and designed with a recessed shape to ensure smooth jewelry insertion and reduced slipping during stretching. 

Choose Your Set: 

13-Piece Set (18g–00g): Covers small gauge sizes for precise, incremental stretching. 

6-Piece Set (7/16"–1"): Ideal for medium to large gauge stretching, complete with a custom-stitched pouch featuring the Pierced Tools and Painful Pleasures logos. 

Choose precision and comfort. Calor Style Tapers are crafted with the thinnest walls to minimize overstretching while maintaining durability. Each taper measures 2" in length and tapers down two sizes smaller than the listed size for smooth, controlled use. 

Please be aware that Calor Tapers are slightly larger than the size listed in the drop down, to account for the recess in the back of the taper that allows said size jewelry to be inserted more easily.

The quality of these are

"The quality of these are great. They’re helpful for determining size of gauged lobes if someone isn’t sure what their size is. my only complaint is that they are slightly bigger than the sizes labeled because of the indent to guide jewelry through."

Calor Taper Set

"Good quality, as advertised. However, you should also market odd-numbered tapers, especially 9, 7, 5, and 3 guage, and include them in professional-market sets."

"Love these calor style tapers. Highly recommend great presentation as well."

Liz M. (5/5)

Absolutely magnificent!

"I've stretched my septum multiple times over the years and always found it an annoying, time consuming task that often takes 2 and sometimes 3 attempts to accomplish. The 4ga taper in this set made it a breeze! The jewelry fit well in the opening and gave me a solid lock up between the taper and the jewelry with no slipping or misalignment. Some people have complained about the fact that the tapers are slightly over sized on the jewelry end, but there's simply no other way to create a teper that the jewelry inserts into without over sizing it to some degree. It caused me zero issues with my septum and if I decide to further stretch my PA I also see no complications with the slight size difference. The finish on these tapers is superb, absolutely on par with some Anatometal jewelry I have and lightyears beyond the el cheapo flat backed tapers rampant on many sites"
