Jaymo Replacement for Cross Selectip 8523 - Measures 4.375 in / 111 mm Long - Gel Rolling Ball Pen Refill - 2 Black

Product Information

Unfortunately, if you try to force an incorrect refill in your pen, you may cause irreparable damage. Neither classic nor slim refill versions fit - both are right length but are too wide at the nib tip and cannot pass through the end section of the pen. These are not interchangeable, as one pushes into the front-end section of the pen and the other screws into a threaded section of the front end of the pen.

When I started looking for a substitute, I also tried the Pilot and Uni refills I had on hand, as well as standard ISO sized rollerball refills, and every one was too fat to fit into the barrel. Check out our guide, Ballpoint Rollerball or Gel Pen, for more information on the different types of pens and inks. Gel ink refills are fantastic for bright vibrant colours, and smooth steady writing lines, but this does come at the cost of the refills life.I have a ballpoint pen of unknown manufature that has a refill measuring 70 mm long by 5 mm at the non writing end the main width of the refill is approx 2 mm. The Cross Switch it pencil converter is a neat little gadget that can turn a Cross ballpoint pen fitted with a Cross Classic refill into a mechanical pencil. Luckily, every Cross pen—from the Calais Chrome ballpoint pen to the Century II Black and Gold Rollerball—opens the same way.

My deep-rooted passion for pens and pencils led me to become a part-time blogger, where I've dedicated myself to sharing the wealth of knowledge I've amassed over the years. Although we do our best to ensure our pictures and descriptions explain our products as clearly as possible, sometimes you may find that when your item arrives it's not quite as you expected, or you may have simply changed your mind. For years I've had a Cross Selectip Rolling Ball pen (very simple looking) and I thought I had a second Selectip which I don't use but looks the same as the one I've been using. Many multi-function refills have a fine writing point as they have limited ink capacity and this prolongs the refill life, but other sizes are available.

You’d need to go to a vintage pen specialist or directly to Sheaffer for further information on historical models and parts. I am looking for a ballpoint refill compatible to a Sailor 83-09 (Fine), which is metal 90mm long and 3mm in diameter (ink and ballpoint tip) with a crimp at 32-34mm. These writing instruments have a lifetime quality warranty, meaning you will need a consistent supply of ink, depending on your usage.

I used the same extender as for the Fisher refill, and the small bit of tubing I'd had over the tip end of the Sheaffer refill, and it was a perfect fit.

Cross do a Jumbo Ballpoint Refill which is designed to fit in any Cross pen which is compatible with Cross Selectip Rollerball Refills. As lots of brands manufacture their own there is a wide range to choose from and even some great colours and styles; like the Lamy M55 Marker Refill, which works like a highlighter. The ballpoint pen is one of the most popular types of pens, so a ballpoint pen refill is usually in high demand. Trying to find refills for a Lamy stainless steel ballpoint pen purchased in Paris at the Pommpadieux (sic) Museum a while back. If the diameter of the barrel is ~8mm, this is the older model and we do not know of any compatible refills which are a finer writing point.
