Ballpoint pen Faber-Castell 243995 clip-on retractable, blue ink, extra bold

Faber-Castell 243995 clip-on retractable ballpoint pen with blue ink and an extra bold line delivers clear, high-contrast writing suitable for everyday tasks. The retractable mechanism protects the tip when not in use and the integrated clip keeps the pen secured to pockets, planners or notebooks. This model is engineered for consistent ink flow and strong visibility where bold lines are required.

Advantages

The design combines a retractable tip and a sturdy clip for convenient carry and one-handed use. Extra bold line width produces highly visible marks for signing documents, filling forms or taking quick notes. Blue ink offers good contrast on standard paper, while the pen’s mechanism reduces the risk of ink drying out when stored retracted.

Suitable for

• Everyday office writing and document signing
• Note-taking and jotting down reminders
• Marking and annotating paperwork where bold lines are needed
• Secure carry in shirt pockets, planners or notebooks

Key specifications

• Ink colour: blue
• Tip/line: extra bold for high-visibility strokes
• Mechanism: retractable click action
• Attachment: integrated clip for secure fastening
• Intended use: general-purpose ballpoint for paper

How to use

Press the retractable mechanism to extend the tip before writing and retract it after use to protect the point and prevent accidental marks. Use on standard paper surfaces; apply moderate pressure to maintain consistent ink flow and avoid pressing excessively, which may shorten tip life. Store the pen retracted when not in use to reduce the chance of ink drying.

Usage recommendations

For best results, keep the pen capped in the retracted position when carrying in pockets or bags and store horizontally at room temperature. If ink flow becomes uneven after long storage, prime the tip by scribbling on scrap paper until the line is consistent.
