Ballpoint pen PILOT FriXion Ball Red — red ink, 0.5 mm tip, 0.25 mm stroke

PILOT FriXion Ball Red refill set contains three 0.5 mm tip ink refills that deliver erasable red ink with an approximate 0.25 mm stroke. These refills are designed for PILOT FriXion Ball and FriXion Clicker 0.5 pens and are compatible with FriXion Point models that accept the same refill type. The thermosensitive ink writes like ordinary gel/ballpoint ink but can be erased cleanly by friction, allowing users to correct mistakes without leaving residue. The set of three refills offers a practical and cost-effective way to restore your existing FriXion pen performance and extend the usable life of the pen body.

Advantages

The refill set provides three ready-to-use red ink refills that match the pen tip size for consistent, precise lines. Erasable thermosensitive ink lets you remove writing cleanly by rubbing the special eraser tip of FriXion pens, which is useful for corrections and tidy notes. Using refills reduces the need to buy new pens, lowering waste and saving cost over time. The 0.5 mm tip creates a fine, approximately 0.25 mm visible stroke suitable for detailed writing and note-taking.

Suitable for

• Everyday writing, note-taking and journaling where erasable ink is required
• Schoolwork and study notes that benefit from clean corrections
• Office use for planners, calendars and document marking with the option to erase
• Refilling existing PILOT FriXion Ball, FriXion Clicker 0.5 and compatible FriXion Point pens

How to use

Remove the empty refill from your compatible FriXion pen according to the pen manufacturer's instructions. Insert a replacement refill fully into the pen body until it clicks or seats firmly. Test the refill on a scrap of paper to ensure smooth ink flow and proper line width. To erase, write normally and rub the pen's eraser tip or the pen's friction surface over the ink; friction generates heat that renders the thermosensitive ink invisible.

Usage recommendations

Store refills at room temperature and avoid exposing written material to high heat or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as thermosensitive ink may become less permanent under extreme temperature changes. For archival notes, consider keeping a separate permanent copy because erasable ink can be affected by heat. Replace refills when ink flow diminishes to maintain consistent line quality.
