Rubber Nipples & Grommets

Tiny part, critical job. Rubber Grommets connect the needle bar loop to the armature bar nipple in a coil tattoo machine, creating a flexible link that allows the needle to move smoothly while the machine cycles. The soft rubber helps cushion the motion and keeps the needle bar securely attached during operation.

Because the grommet sits between two moving parts, it acts like a small shock absorber—reducing vibration while still transferring the machine’s motion to the needle bar. Built from durable rubber, these grommets provide a snug fit and consistent tension, making them a simple but essential replacement part for machine builders and artists maintaining coil setups.
