The Tandem 1011180 t:slim X2 3 mL Cartridge with t:lock is a disposable insulin reservoir designed to interface with the t:slim X2 insulin pump system. By providing 3 mL (300 units) of insulin capacity, it enables extended usage between cartridge changes and is suited for users with moderate to higher insulin requirements. The cartridge’s use of a flexible pouch and “Micro-Delivery Technology” helps minimize wasted insulin and maintains compactness, ensuring that the insulin reservoir does not add excessive bulk to the pump unit.

A key innovation in this version is the t:lock connector interface, which replaces the earlier Luer-lock style connection. The t:lock is engineered to streamline the filling process — making the connection quicker and cleaner — and reduce the insulin lost during priming by about 4.4 units per fill. This reduces the time needed for users to fill and prime their infusion sets. However, the cartridge is only compatible with infusion sets that support t:lock, so older or non-compatible sets cannot be used with it.

From a user workflow perspective, the 1011180 cartridge integrates into the pump load cycle with constraints such as a minimum fill requirement (50 units) to ensure delivery functionality. Because the cartridge is designed for single use and sterile handling, it must be replaced as directed. The pouch system and connector interface allow relatively clean handling and changeover, although users must ensure proper priming and zeroing of air before use. In sum, this cartridge aims to balance capacity, precision, and ease of handling for continuous insulin delivery in the t:slim X2 system.
