Tools - Calor Style Tapers
These 'calor style' tapers are made of 304 Stainless Steel. These tapers can be autoclaved and reused.
Each taper is 2" in length and tapers down 2 gauges smaller than the listed size.
Calor style tapers are thicker and recessed so you can fit the jewelry inside the taper; this helps prevent slippage while chasing the jewellery through.

Frequently Asked Questions
💲 Why do the prices say $1000 for some items?
Our new website lists the Retail price as the regular price. If you are logged in as a Wholesale customer, the Wholesale price is shown as a sale price.
The items that we only sell to our Wholesale customers (needles, tools, etc) have a Retail price of $1000 to discourage people who do not have a verified Wholesale account from adding them to cart.

✔️ Can I special order items to be sterilized?
Absolutely, we can sterilize special items for you 😊 Sterilization costs $1.00 per piece, and takes about a week to get back from our sterilization contractor.
On the checkout page, write us a note and tell us exactly which items you'd like sterilized, and we'd be happy to do that for you. We will send you an invoice for the sterilization cost after we have received your order.
