<h4 id="pen01">BOLT-ACTION STYLE:&#xA0;</h4>All of our ballpoint pens are bolt-action style. &#xA0;We do not offer click or twist type pens at this time. &#xA0;We designed the pen to be used in either the right or left hand. The thumb moves the bolt down along the bolt track and shifts the bolt either forward or back into deployed position. In either hand the pen barrel is grasped with the bolt pen facing forward. In the left hand the clip rests against the top bend of index finger; in the right it rests against the inside bottom pad of index finger.&#xA0;Pens come installed with standard (oil) black ink only. &#xA0;We do not substitute other colors or ink types into new pens prior to shipment.

It may be less noticeable on pure metal compared to a coated surface.&#xA0;Coating is for grip-related texture, not protection. The type of metal below the coating does not make a difference on surface durability. &#xA0;&#xA0;Protective coatings are typically clear lacquer. &#xA0;None of our pens are lacquered as this creates a slick surface that does not support grip, which is necessary/helpful given the weight and dimension of our pens.If you use the pen for everyday carry, we recommend protecting right away if your storage method generates faster wear. &#xA0;We advise storing it in a pen case or cover that has a deep-carry clip.Some buyers elect to lacquer their pen/pencil themselves understanding that modification voids the <a href="https://bastion-bolt-action-pen-gckhsmewxfr.gorgias.help/en-US/warranty--return--refund-policies-304612#war02">30-day warranty</a>.

This page provides all the information you need about our ballpoint ink products.&#xA0;<h4 id="ink01">BALLPOINT TIP SIZE:</h4>Our standard refill ballpoint tip size (line width) is .55mm, which is considered a fine point. &#xA0;We do not offer any other sizes or styles. &#xA0;Broader size points will not fit through the cone hole.&#xA0;Important to keep in mind with a fine tip ballpoint:Writing position should be more upright. Think of a clock face; if 12:00 is vertically upright, then ideal writing angle is 1:00 (right hand); 11:00 (left hand).If the pen angle is past 1:00 or more, then ink is sparse, skipping, or non-existent and the ballpoint scratches across the paper. When writing at lower angles, you are no longer accessing ink flow through the fine point, you are attempting to write with the side of the tip where there is no ink flow at all. Users misinterpret this as the ink &apos;drying out&apos; or an empty cartridge.Low angle with gel ink can exacerbate this as gel is water-based. The ballpoint will not sustain ink flow because it&apos;s drying faster than oil based ink that can stay lubricated longer than gel.Cheap plastic pens bought in bulk use broader tips and different ink mixtures that are more forgiving in both writing style and user habits (e.g., leaving tips exposed for long periods of time with cap off). <h4 id="ink02">INK INSTALLED IN NEW PEN:</h4>All pens come installed with black oil-based ink. We do not substitute ink styles/colors in new pens or sell pens with different color inks installed. We sell both <a href="https://bastionboltactionpen.com/products/replacement-ink-cartridge-for-bolt-action-pen-by-bastion%C2%AE" id="isPasted">oil and gel style inks</a> in our store.<h4 id="ink03">AVAILABLE INK TYPES:</h4>We offer both ballpoint (oil-based) ink as well as gel (water-based ink). See below to understand the differences between ink styles.<h4 id="ink04">STANDARD CARTRIDGE CAPACITY:</h4>A single standard cartridge offers enough ink for approximately 30 college-ruled, 8.5x11 sheets of standard 20# to 24# <span id="isPasted" style="color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: center; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; float: none; display: inline !important;">(50-60lb text) bond&#xA0;paper. &#xA0;This will vary as writing styles (pressure, glide, angle, etc.) are unique to each individual.<h4 id="ink05">PURCHASING STANDARD PEN CARTRIDGE:</h4>We sell both <a href="https://bastionboltactionpen.com/products/replacement-ink-cartridge-for-bolt-action-pen-by-bastion%C2%AE">oil and gel style inks</a>. Colors available are black and blue in both styles. We are not able to custom order or blend custom color inks. &#xA0;<h4 id="ink06">PURCHASING MINI PEN CARTRIDGE:</h4>The mini refill is used exclusively for our mini aluminum pens and is only available in black oil ink. It is the last ink option shown on our <a href="https://bastionboltactionpen.com/products/replacement-ink-cartridge-for-bolt-action-pen-by-bastion%C2%AE" id="isPasted">ink cartridge product page</a>.<h4 id="ink07">CARTRIDGE COMPATIBILITY:</h4>When we designed our pen in 2015, we made it compatible with ISO G2 refills (Parker G2, not Pilot brand). At that time, some manufacturers used the same refill dimensions we did. However, since that time, some manufacturers have changed their dimensions and they no longer work with our pens. &#xA0;Not all of our pens have the exact same internal dimensions; however, our ink cartridges fit all of our pens.A refill brand other than our own may or may not work with our pens or may work on one of our pens, but not all.We do not research or collect compatibility information regarding off brand refills, so we cannot say with certainty if off-brands will work or not. &#xA0;NOTE: damage or malfunction resulting from off brand refills voids manufacturer warranty.&#xA0;If considering using an off-brand ISO G2 refill, follow these standard refill size dimensions to ensure best fit:&#xA0;Total Length: 99.0mmInk barrel width (top to taper): 6.0mmInkwell shaft width (below taper): 2.0mm&#xA0;<img src="https://attachments.gorgias.help/uploads.gorgias.io/gpGJBxpgqO7YXZA5/undefined-65630ba1-0e5a-4c2c-b6df-4a7eebf6ab3b" class="fr-fic fr-dii"> <h4 id="ink08">CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:</h4>Make sure pen is not deployed (cartridge tip is not exposed).Unscrew the barrel from the pen tip.There is a seam about an inch or so up from the tip.This is the threaded part that separates the pen body to access the ink cartridge.Be careful when removing the cartridge, not to lose the spring that covers the ballpoint tip area.Place the spring on the ballpoint end of the new cartridge.Insert cartridge into pen barrel, turning it very slowly until you feel it seat all the way into the bolt shaft.Screw the pen tip back to the barrel and deploy bolt-action to make sure there is no resistance or blockage.<h4 id="cartridge-troubleshooting-and-general-care">CARTRIDGE TROUBLESHOOTING AND GENERAL CARE:</h4>Please review the following troubleshooting recommendations as the first step toward resolution.Wax Protector:Make sure the wax protector (typically colored red) is completely removed from cartridge tip.It&apos;s a tiny cap that typically pops off when removed with your fingernails or applying a bit of pressure to the end.However, sometimes residual wax may gum up and remain on the point inhibiting movement.You will feel a bit of tension or friction when trying to write. The point may skip instead of rolling smoothly on the paper surface.Cleaning Ballpoint:Apply rubbing alcohol to the tip to make sure that no part of wax protector is blocking ink flow.Ink Flow:&#xA0;Apply a very quick source of heat (hot water/flame) to the cartridge tip.Do not apply flame to tip that was just cleaned with alcohol. Wait a while to ensure it&apos;s completely dry.Do not place cartridge or pen in a microwave or use a heat gun as the source of heat.Shake the cartridge a few times with a quick flick of the wrist to move the ink to the point end of the cartridge.Attempt writing again with the cartridge almost completely vertical moving in small circles without too much pressure. Storage:&#xA0;When not in use, be sure to retract pen cartridge back into barrel and keep pen cartridge pointing down.<h4 id="ink10">DIFFERENCE IN INK STYLES:</h4>Ballpoint, gel, and rollerball pens all have one feature in common: they use a small, revolving ball in the tip to dispense ink. &#xA0;As you write, the surface of the ball is exposed to the ink reservoir, thus coating the ball, and continuing the flow of ink. Where they differ is how the ink is formulated.Ballpoint InkBallpoint pens use viscous, oil-based inks. &#xA0;They&#x2019;re made by dissolving dyes in a mixture of alcohols and fatty acids. &#xA0;Alcohols promote smooth ink flow, while fatty acids lubricate the tip of the pen. &#xA0;Because the ink is so thick, ballpoints work well on low-quality papers with little to no bleed through. &#xA0;However, they do require more pressure to write. &#xA0;This can be tiring over long periods of time, but some find these inks easier to control. &#xA0;Ballpoint inks are usually smudge resistant, quick drying, and waterproof.Gel InkGel ink consists of pigment suspended in a water-based gel. &#xA0;This particular formulation makes gel pens precise and vibrant. &#xA0;The smooth ink flow makes it much easier to write for long periods of time with less pressure, so you won&#x2019;t get hand cramps as easily. &#xA0;However, gel pens tend to skip more than ballpoints or rollerballs. This is because their tips are not as evenly coated with the thinner, water-based ink. Gel pens also have longer dry times, so they can smudge if you&#x2019;re not careful.<h4 id="ink11">WHEN TO USE INK TYPES:</h4>Ballpoint pens are dependable writers. &#xA0;The viscous (oil-based) ink found in ballpoints is uniquely suited to writing on slick surfaces (like receipts or other thermal papers) that might smudge gel (water-based) inks. &#xA0;Thanks to their dependability, ballpoints make excellent everyday carry additions. &#xA0; Because ballpoints require some pressure to write, they work well to ensure dark marks when paired with carbonless copy paper.Gel pens are great for everyday notetaking. &#xA0;We do not offer rollerball or hybrid ink types.Rollerball InkA rollerball pen uses liquid ink consisting of dyes dissolved in water--similar to what&#x2019;s commonly used with fountain pens. &#xA0;Hybrid InkSome ballpoints use hybrid or low-viscosity ink. &#xA0;This refers to an ink formulation that is enhanced with lubricants, making the ball at the tip rotate smoothly. &#xA0;
