12-pack retractable gel pens

This pack contains twelve Pentel K497B retractable gel pens with red ink and a 0.70 mm medium point. The acid-free gel formulation produces clean, permanent lines suitable for archival documents. A crystal-clear, diamond-cut top click mechanism protects the tip when retracted. Each pen includes a latex-free grip and an extra-large metal pocket clip.

Suits daily writers who need archival ink

The acid-free ink and smooth gel flow suit students, office workers and journal keepers who write for long periods. The comfortable latex-free grip reduces fatigue during extended sessions. Buyers who need a finer line width or a different ink colour should look elsewhere. The medium point may feel broad for very small handwriting.

0.70 mm medium point with red gel ink

The 0.70 mm tip delivers a consistent medium line width in red gel ink. This single specification determines whether the pen matches the required line weight and colour for the task. Refills are available separately as Pentel KFRS7 cartridges. The retractable design keeps the tip protected during transport.
