Rotring Pens - The Draughtsman’s Choice
Published by Ian on March 22nd, 2008 in Pens
Rotring Pens have long been recognised as some of the best in the business and as such are consistently asked for by our customers. Our range of Rotring equipment, doesn’t only cover their range of pens, but also mechanical pencils and drawing aids, but it is mainly the pens that people ask for.
Most Rotring pens are now refillable, with bottled ink being the preferred choice and the nib has a special easy clean system to prevent ink clogging and blotting. The pens are ideal for both black and coloured inks, and produce precise line widths in accordance with ISO Standard 128 & 3098/1 for drawing and lettering respectively.
When considering pens the nib size and the line size are important especially for detailed work, the Rotring range starts at 0.1mm tip, with other nib sizes 0.13mm, 0.18mm, 0.25mm, 0.30mm, 0.35mm and the largest sizes 0.5mm and 0.7mm nibs.
If you damage the nib of your Rotring pen it is possible to purchase replacements and this can save money when compared with cheaper brands for which spare nibs are not available.
