5 Pack 5ML/CC Premium Ink Filling Syringe with Blunt Needle Tip for Fountain Pen

I have a number of fountain pens that take either cartridges or converters, and I have never liked having to submerse the entire nib (and part of the barrel) in order to fill the pen with ink. Not only is it a bit messy, but I use mostly Noodler's Ink (tall skinny bottle), so it gets trickier and fussier to submerge to the right depth as you use more ink from the bottle.Enter these syringes. It's much easier to submerge just the needle into the bottle and draw what you need, then precisely fill the converter, avoiding all of the mess. With my cheaper pens (Hongdian) that does lead to a dry nib start (I either have to dip the nib into the bottle or force a bit of ink from the converter into the nib to get things flowing). However, with my nicer pens (Pilot), I fill the converter with ink, attach to the nib, and the pen works immediately.Clean-up is a snap with a small glass of water: either the syringe in between fills, or the converter/nib when you're changing ink colors. I first bought syringes with longer needles (to reach to the bottom of the jar when needed), but then switched to these ~1" needles as the better overall alternative. Five came in the package, so I don't imagine I'll ever run out. I wish I had discovered these sooner, but I definitely won't be going back!

Excellent packaging. Very accurate, great for transferring ink and juice.

Blunt-tipped, work great, as described. Essential tool for refilling ink cartridges from ink bottles made of any fountain pen brand in any color. Each cartridge can then be re-used 5-10 times before it wears out and is discarded. Choose from a much wider variety of ink colors and types using blunt tipped syringes to re-fill cartridges! Bottled ink is also much more affordable than always buying new ink cartidges for one-time use. Blunt-tipped syringes are also helpful in loading an eyedropper converter pen with ink. These syringes are re-useable many times each within the arena of the fountain pen hobby. They’re marked one time use because other than the tips being blunted for use with fountain pens, they’re otherwise the same item as what’s used in health care settings for injections which is most definitely a one-time-use setting. A useful and handy tool!

I have a few eyedropper pens. I have used eyedroppers to fill them, but that was fairly messy and inaccurate for me. So I bought these.I've used one syringe so far to fill a few pens. It worked very well. Big points for that.The only reason this gets four stars instead of five is because the syringes don't have covers. So if you get these, just be careful not to jab yourself. They're not incredibly sharp, but they're still pokey, by nature.

Used for auto vinal wrap works great

Works great for filling technical pens.

does what it says - I just needed one, but the multi-pack was cheaper.I use these to refill my fountain pens ink cartridges, instead of buying more cartridges.Works like a charm.

These are very handy, both for ink refills and also other projects. Have an old cartridge pen and bottle of ink. Rather than buy new cartridges, I use this to refill the old one. Rinses right out when done.Also really good at delivering lubricating oil to space heaters/table fans/box fans. Have dedicated one to 20W oil and another to regular light viscosity lubricating oil. Bought these syringes a while ago and the rubber on the plungers has not deteriorated in the two that have oil in them all the time. I just store them needle up in the garage so they won't weep out the tip. Needle is about an inch long (see pic) and blunt at the tip. All kinds of uses.
