The Killer Ink Precision needles are 12 gauge and feature microneedles that are 0.35 mm in diameter, with needle sizes ranging from a single Liner to 49 Magnums.

Seven different configurations of Killer Ink Precision needles are available: Round Liner, Round Shader, Large Shader, Curved Magnum, Magnum Weaved, Magnum Stacked, and Flat.
