Ball Pen BIC Cristal Blue 1.0 mm medium point, transparent barrel, cap

BIC Cristal Blue ball pen with a 1.0 mm medium point provides smooth, consistent writing for everyday tasks. The pen has a transparent hexagonal barrel that allows users to monitor the remaining ink level and a ventilated cap for safety. The steel writing tip ensures reliable ink flow and consistent line width, while the medium point balances legibility and control for general-purpose use.

Advantages

The transparent hexagonal barrel offers a clear view of ink supply and a stable, non-rolling shape on flat surfaces. The 1.0 mm medium point produces uniform lines suitable for notes, forms and handwriting, and the steel tip provides durability and precise contact with paper. The ventilated cap reduces the risk of choking if left in the mouth and protects the tip when not in use. The pen is lightweight and designed for extended use without excessive hand fatigue.

Suitable for

• Everyday note-taking at home, school or office
• Filling forms, documents and checks
• Handwritten lists, annotations and edits
• Classroom tasks and exam writing

How to use

Remove the cap before writing and advance the pen to establish ink flow by making a short test stroke on a scrap of paper if necessary. Hold the pen at a comfortable angle and apply light, steady pressure to maintain a consistent line. Replace the cap after use to prevent drying and to protect the tip. Store the pen horizontally or with the tip down to encourage steady ink flow when returning to use.

Usage recommendations

For long writing sessions, use light pressure and change grip occasionally to reduce hand fatigue. Avoid leaving the pen uncapped for prolonged periods to prevent ink drying. When storing multiple pens, keep them capped and in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve ink performance.
