A postless 510 cartridge has no center post: the coil sits in a sintered ceramic bucket with an embedded FeCrAl element. Capless means no press-fit cap — you fill through a self-sealing silicone septum, so the capping station comes off the line entirely. Mono is our patent-pending build of that format. Transparent terpene-resistant polyamide tank instead of glass, peroxide-cured FKM base seal, 510 thread. Sold wholesale to extract producers. Under $1 landed. Free samples at postlesscart.com.

Definitions first, because the terminology is new and gets used loosely.
A postless 510 cartridge has no center post. On a conventional cartridge the post holds the coil and routes airflow up the middle of the tank — it is also a leak path and it traps dead volume you never vaporize. On Mono the coil is a sintered ceramic bucket with the FeCrAl heating element embedded directly in it, so there is nothing left for a post to do.
Capless means there is no press-fit cap to close the tank after filling. You fill through a self-sealing silicone septum with a blunt needle instead. That matters more operationally than it sounds: capping is its own station on a filling line, with its own tooling, tuning, downtime and headcount. Remove the cap and you remove the station.
The rest of the build: a transparent terpene-resistant polyamide tank rather than glass, so it survives transit and you can read the fill level; a peroxide-cured FKM base seal; standard 510 thread. Patent pending and in production.

Happy to get into materials, tooling or fill parameters with anyone curious.
