FAQs

Does the set include refills?

No, the set includes 7 writing instruments, but individual refills for specific pens are not included in the package.

Can the permanent marker be used on glass?

Yes, the BIC Marking permanent marker is designed to write effectively on a variety of surfaces, including glass, plastic, and metal.

What is the lead size for the mechanical pencil?

The BIC Criterium mechanical pencil included in this set uses 2 mm HB lead.

Is there a storage case included?

No, the product is packaged as a set but does not come with a dedicated carrying or storage case.

What colors are the pens in this set?

The set features a refined aesthetic with tools in black, grey, silver, and white tones.

Are the pens suitable for left-handed writers?

The ballpoint and rollerball pens are generally suitable, but as with all ink-based pens, check for drying time to prevent smudging.

Troubleshooting

Pen skipping or not writing

Try scribbling on a scrap piece of paper to prime the ball or nib. If the pen has been stored for a long time, the ink may need a moment to flow.

Mechanical pencil lead breaking frequently

Ensure you are not extending too much lead at once; keep only 1-2 mm of lead visible to prevent unnecessary pressure.

Marker ink appearing dry

Store the marker tip-down for an hour to allow the ink to settle into the nib, and ensure the cap is snapped on firmly after every use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The set is ready for immediate use right out of the box. To maintain the longevity of your instruments:

  1. Capping: Always cap your pens and markers immediately after use to prevent ink evaporation or drying, particularly for the gel and rollerball pens.
  2. Pencil Care: Ensure you keep the 2 mm HB lead for the Criterium pencil stocked to avoid tip breakage during use.
  3. Surface Usage: Use the metallic permanent marker only on non-porous or suitable surfaces to ensure the best finish.
  4. Storage: Since no storage case is provided, store your pens horizontally to prevent ink pooling or leaking, and keep them in a dedicated desk organizer.
