Standard Ceramic Pen
Features
The pen tip is a ceramic tube, with ink flowing through it to
form the line
Because pen tip diameter is uniform, line thickness is uniform
from start until the ink runs out
Pen tip diameters available are 0.25 mm, 0.35 mm, 0.50 mm,
and 0.7 mm are available, allowing use for plots or business
graphics
Water-soluble ink available in eight colors (black, red, blue, green, orange, pink, brown and purple)
Because these are dye-based inks, plots made with these pens will fade if left exposed to sunlight for long
periods. Store plots made using these pens out of direct sunlight.
Water Based Ball-point Pen
Features
Water based ball-point pen with a tip that resists drying out
Optimum for thin line plotting
Can be used at relatively high speed
Comes in four colors (black, red, blue, green)
Ink flow may be degraded when pen speed is extremely slow.
Because these are dye-based inks, plots made with these pens will fade if left exposed to sunlight for long
periods. Store plots made using these pens out of direct sunlight.
Oil Based Pressurized Ball-point Pen
Features
Gas is injected into the ball-point cartridge, and ink discharged
by the pressure of the gas
Suited or high-speed plotting
Suited for long plot distances
Pen tips do not dry out
Oil-based ink comes with four exchangeable cartridge colors (black, red, blue, green)
*Always use the pressurized ball-point pen as a set with the holder and replacement cartridge.
