Product Information
Full details
This guide is for owners of Pilot BPS-GP, BP-S, and SnapClick pens who need to replace their ink refill. The key benefit is restoring smooth writing performance to your favorite pen. A key caveat is that this refill is *not* compatible with most other Pilot retractable pens, which often use the RFN S refill. This refill uses oil-based ink and is available in medium (1.0mm ball, 0.31mm line), broad (1.2mm ball, 0.37mm line), and extra-broad (1.6mm ball, 0.41mm line) point sizes, with ink color options including black, blue, and red.

FAQs
Which Pilot pens does this refill fit?
This refill is designed specifically for Pilot BPS-GP, BP-S, and SnapClick pens only. It does not fit most other Pilot retractable pens.
What does 'formerly known as RFJGP' mean?
It indicates that this refill is the direct replacement or successor to a previous product line that was identified by the code RFJGP. If your pen used an RFJGP refill, this Rfn-Gg should be the correct replacement, provided your pen is one of the compatible models.
What is the ink type in this refill?
This refill uses oil-based ink.
What are the available point sizes?
The refill is available in Medium (1.0mm ball), Broad (1.2mm ball), and Extra-Broad (1.6mm ball) point sizes.
What are the dimensions of the refill?
The refill is 144mm long and has a diameter of 3.1mm.
Can I use this refill in my Pilot G2 pen?
No, this refill is not compatible with the Pilot G2 pen. The G2 typically uses a different refill type (e.g., BLS-G2).
What ink colors are available?
While black is common, this refill series is also available in blue and red, depending on the specific product variant you find.
Troubleshooting
Pen is not writing or skipping
Ensure the refill is correctly installed and seated. Try writing on a different surface or making a few firm strokes on scrap paper to re-engage the ink flow. Ensure the pen tip is clean and free of debris.
Ink smudging excessively
Oil-based ink can take a moment to dry. Ensure you are not smudging the writing immediately after application. For faster drying, consider a different refill type if available for your pen model.
Refill does not fit the pen
Double-check that your pen is one of the compatible models (Pilot BPS-GP, BP-S, SnapClick). This refill is not a universal fit for all Pilot pens.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Check: Before purchasing, confirm your pen model is one of the following: Pilot BPS-GP, BP-S, or SnapClick. This refill is *not* compatible with most other Pilot retractable pens, which typically require the RFN S refill. If you are unsure, consult your pen's manual or manufacturer's website.
Installation:
- Ensure your pen is disassembled according to its specific design (usually involves unscrewing the barrel).
- Carefully remove the old ink refill.
- Insert the new Pilot Rfn-Gg refill, ensuring it is seated securely.
- Reassemble your pen.
Care:
- Store refills in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

- If the pen is not used for an extended period, the ink may require a few strokes to start flowing smoothly again.
