Faber-Castell Poly Ball XB retractable ballpoint pen, sweet lilac

Faber-Castell Poly Ball XB in sweet lilac – retractable ballpoint pen with soft-touch grip

The Faber-Castell Poly Ball XB (art. no. 241104) in sweet lilac is a lavender-coloured retractable ballpoint pen with blue, document-proof ink. You can use it for everyday notes, forms and signatures.

The ergonomic triangular grip zone is ribbed and has a non-slip soft-touch surface. The pen sits securely in your hand, even when you write for longer. The clip and tip are chrome-plated, and the brand name is printed in white on the matt barrel. The XB refill gives a soft writing feel and a broad, easy-to-read line. When it runs out, you fit a standard large-capacity refill and keep the pen.

Using the retractable pen

Press the button once to extend the tip and a second time to retract it. The tip is then protected when you slip the pen into a bag or pencil case. The refill is replaceable. When you buy a new one, choose a standard large-capacity refill that fits this pen. An XB refill writes more broadly and softly than finer refills, so for very small handwriting it may seem a little wide.
