Ballpoint pen Schneider Electric Maxx 271 — black ink, single-colour, no xylene/toluene

Schneider Electric Maxx 271 is a single-colour black ballpoint pen engineered for everyday handwriting and marking tasks. It delivers a reliable, consistent line with practical ink flow suitable for office, school and home use. The ink formulation is free of xylene and toluene, providing a safer solvent profile for routine writing. The product is supplied individually shrink-wrapped and features a replaceable writing tip and a valve-controlled ink delivery for controlled application.

Advantages

The pen provides uniform black lines with good opacity and abrasion resistance on a wide range of surfaces. Its valve-controlled ink feed ensures consistent flow without excessive blotting, and the absence of xylene and toluene reduces exposure to those solvents. The replaceable tip prolongs usable life, while individual shrink-wrapping preserves the pen until first use.

How to use

Remove the shrink-wrap and place the cap securely before use. For marking, hold the pen at a comfortable angle and apply steady pressure to achieve a medium line of about 1–2 mm. Use on a stable surface and test on an inconspicuous area if applying to non-paper materials. Replace the tip if wear affects line quality, and keep the cap closed when not in use to prevent drying.

Usage recommendations

Store the pen horizontally or with the tip down for short periods to maintain ink flow. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve ink properties. When using on delicate or coated surfaces, test compatibility first to ensure adhesion and avoid damage.
