Best Answer

RLB:

R - Round

L - Liner

B- Bugpin

This means that the needle is set up in a round configuration, with a tight grouping for lining, and composed of bugpin needles which are thinner than your standard #12 needles (usually #08). So what you have is a much thinner lining needle usually for detail work or highlights.

Can you reuse your tattoo needles?

I wouldn't reuse tattoo needles due to risk of spreading infections or diseases, even if an ultrasonic cleaner is being used. It's just not worth the risk for how little you have to pay for needles. You can pay about 12 dollars for around 50 needles of your choosing on most websites.
