Retractable pens are available in just about every color.
When retractable pens were first invented, they almost always came in either blue, black, or red. Today, you can find retractable pens in virtually any color imaginable. Why does that matter? Some people like to use different colors for different projects. Other people use multiple colors depending on document versions. In some circumstances, you might want each person in an office or other setting to use their own color, so it’s easy to know who’s comments are who’s.
Not just ballpoint.
Retractable pens aren’t just available in ballpoint versions. We have retractable pens in gel-tip, felt-tip, ballpoint, and rollerball options. So, no matter what kind of tip or ink your project calls for, there’s a retractable pen to match. Love the smooth-writing style of gel? Done. Prefer the more traditional feel of ballpoints and rollerballs? No problem. There’s a retractable pen option for that as well. In fact, there’s probably a retractable pen option for any pen you already love.
Don’t forget the satisfying click.
Whether you like the sound or want an audible cue when your pen opens and closes, retractable pens all feature that satisfying click every time they’re pressed. You can even try different pens to find just the right amount of click for you!
FAQ
What is a retractable pen?
A retractable pen is a type of pen with a tip that can move in and out of the body. You can expose the tip to write by clicking a button or twisting the body of the pen. This means there's no cap to lose, and you can easily carry the pen in your pocket without the risk of ink stains.
How do retractable pens work?
Retractable pens work using a spring mechanism. When you click the button on the top of the pen, the spring gets compressed and then releases to either push the tip out so you can write or retract it back into the body to keep it from drying out or marking other surfaces.
Do retractable pens dry out?
Retractable pens can dry out if left exposed with the tip out for too long. However, their design helps prevent this from happening. Always making sure to click the pen back into a retracted position after use will help keep the ink from drying out and extend the pen's life.
How long does a pen usually last?
A pen's life depends on how much it's used and the type of pen. Generally, a pen can last for several months to even a year if used for everyday writing. Retractable pens can last longer since their design protects the tip when not in use.
What should I consider when choosing a pen for office or home use?
When picking a pen for office or home use, consider how it feels in your hand, the type of ink it uses, whether you prefer retractable or capped, and the pen's durability. It's also good to think about ink color for different tasks, the pen's line thickness, and if you need any special features like a stylus or waterproof ink.
