Features & Benefits
-
Improved successor: The 0500 refills are marketed as improved over the previous 0300 line, especially with better ink capacity and an all?metal barrel design for enhanced durability.
-
Standard size for Sailor ballpoint pens: Many Sailor ballpoint pens (including 1911 ballpoint, Reglus, Procolor, etc.) accept the 0500 refill format.
-
Oil?based ink: The black ink uses an oil?based formula that tends to resist smudging and provides stable writing.
-
Balanced line width: The 0.7 mm tip gives a fine-to-medium line — crisp and readable without being overly bold.
-
Reliable dimensions: With proven dimensions (φ?5.5 mm × 95.5 mm), it matches existing Sailor pens built for 0500 refills.
Usage & Practical Notes
-
Proper insertion & seating: Ensure the refill is fully seated in the pen barrel so that internal contact with the tip and feed is correct. Partial seating may cause skipping or inconsistent ink flow.
-
Priming the tip: If the pen has been idle, start with light scribbles to get the ink flowing smoothly.
-
Paper compatibility: Works best on smooth, moderately absorbent papers. Very coarse or absorbent papers might cause line fuzz or bleed.
-
Replacement & matching: When replacing, make sure you choose not only the 0500 series but also the correct tip size (0.7 mm) and desired ink color.
-
Cross?compatibility note: The Refill Guide suggests that the 0500 (metal body) refill is proprietary but that some pens accepting Sheaffer K?style refills might also accept it (or vice versa) with slight modification.
