Ballpoint pen Caran d’Ache 849 POPLINE FLUO M blue ink white hexagonal metal barrel - 1 pc

The Caran d’Ache 849 POPLINE FLUO is a ballpoint pen with a medium (M) tip and blue ink, housed in a white fluorescent-style hexagonal metal barrel. It uses a reliable press-action mechanism for quick deployment and retracting of the tip. The pen is designed for smooth everyday writing, combining a solid metal construction with a compact, lightweight profile suitable for carrying in pockets, notebooks or pen holders.

Advantages

This ballpoint pen offers consistent ink flow and a medium line width for clear, legible writing. The hexagonal metal barrel provides a secure grip and prevents the pen from rolling off flat surfaces. The fluorescent white finish adds visual contrast and makes the pen easy to spot in a bag or on a desk. The push-button mechanism operates quietly and reliably for frequent use.

Suitable for

• Everyday note-taking in school, university or office environments
• General office tasks such as signing documents and writing memos
• Journaling, planners and personal organization
• Creative sketching and doodling where medium blue ink is preferred

When it may not be suitable

This pen is not intended for technical drawing that requires ultra-fine precision or for archival purposes where pigment archival ink is required. The medium tip produces a visible line that may not suit users who need very fine, narrow strokes. The fluorescent finish is decorative rather than reflective or glow-in-the-dark and should not be relied upon for visibility in low-light conditions.

How to use
