Fineliner pen Sakura Pigma Micron 01 orange — line width 0.25 mm, permanent pigment ink, water- and fade-resistant

Sakura Pigma Micron 01 fineliner in orange features an extra-fine 0.25 mm metal-clad tip and pigment-based archival ink formulated to be permanent, water-resistant and fade-resistant. The pen is engineered for precise technical drawing, detailed illustration, lettering and archival documentation. Its consistent ink flow and quick-drying, clog-resistant performance make it suitable for sustained, accurate line work on paper and other porous surfaces.

Advantages

The Sakura Pigma Micron 01 delivers a stable, uniform 0.25 mm line that resists bleeding and feathering thanks to its pigment ink composition. Its ink is designed to be archival and lightfast, reducing the risk of colour fading over time. The metal-clad tip provides durability and precise control for fine details, while the pen’s quick-drying properties minimise smudging during fast workflows.

Suitable for

• Technical drawing and drafting where consistent fine lines are required
• Illustration, comic inking and detailed sketching
• Hand lettering, calligraphy accents and note-taking
• Archival work, documentation and mixed-media pieces that require permanent ink
• Designers, architects, artists and hobbyists working on paper-based projects

When it may not be suitable

This fineliner is intended for use on paper and other absorbent surfaces; it may not perform as intended on non-porous substrates such as glossy plastics, metal or glass, where ink adhesion and permanence can be compromised. For broad washes, filling large areas or marker-style blending, a thicker nib or different ink system would be more efficient than a 0.25 mm fine tip.

Key specifications

• Tip width: 0.25 mm (extra-fine)
• Ink type: pigment-based, permanent, water-resistant and fade-resistant
• Line quality: consistent, non-bleeding, quick-drying
• Tip construction: metal-clad for precision and durability
• Colour: orange

How to use

Shake or store the pen horizontally before use for even ink distribution, then remove the cap and depress lightly when placing the tip on paper. Apply steady, light pressure to produce a uniform 0.25 mm line; avoid pressing hard to prevent tip damage. Allow printed lines to dry briefly before layering or erasing pencil guides. After use, replace the cap securely to prevent drying.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended surface: best results on paper and other porous materials
• Desired line width: extra-fine 0.25 mm for detailed work, not for broad coverage
• Colour choice: orange is suitable for accents, highlights and coloured linework
• Archival needs: pigment ink offers permanence and resistance to water and fading

Usage recommendations

Use this Sakura Pigma Micron 01 fineliner for precise inking, technical sketches and archival notes. For consistent results, work on smooth, absorbent paper, cap the pen after each session, and pair with light pencil guides that can be erased after ink has fully dried.
