Detail 01
1.14 mm thickness
Stiff enough that it barely bends. Attack comes from your hand, not pick flex, so notes speak faster.

What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Tortex material
Matte, slightly powdery surface that resists slipping when your fingers sweat. Wears down gradually rather than chipping.
Detail 03
6 dozen (72 picks)
Bulk quantity. Per-pick cost drops well below buying singles, but you are committed to this gauge.
Detail 04
Purple color coding
Dunlop uses color to mark gauge. Purple always means 1.14 mm, so you can identify thickness by sight.
Detail 05
Standard shape
The common 351-style outline. Rounded shoulders, medium point — fits most players' existing grip without relearning.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Bulk bag only. No case, tin, or storage container included.
- 021.14 mm is heavy. If unsure, try a single pick first.
- 03Pick gauge is personal. Buying 72 of the wrong one stings.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How thick is 1.14 mm compared to a medium pick?
Noticeably thicker. Mediums usually sit around 0.60-0.73 mm. At 1.14 mm you get almost no flex, which favors precision and volume over strum softness.
02Are these good for acoustic guitar?
They work, but heavy picks on acoustic produce a hard, percussive attack. Strummers usually prefer thinner. Flatpickers who want note definition often go heavy.
03Do Tortex picks wear out fast?
The tip rounds off with use rather than breaking. Heavy gauges last longer than thin ones because there is more material to wear through.
04Why do the picks come in different colors?
Color indicates gauge across the Tortex line. Purple is 1.14 mm. It lets you grab the right thickness out of a mixed pile instantly.
