Questions & Answers

Is the nib interchangeable between sizes?

All variants share the same body and only the nib size changes.

What filling system does it use?

It is filled by cartridge / converter; the makers own cartridges or converter are recommended to ensure a proper fit.

Does the nib dry out when there is no cap to close?

No. A shutter inside the head stays closed under spring pressure and the nib pushes it open on the way out, so the nib sits in a sealed chamber whenever it is retracted.

How is the birch wood cared for?

Wipe it with a soft slightly damp cloth, avoiding solvents and abrasive products.

What warranty does it carry?

It includes 3 years of official Pilot warranty.

Quality pen, tricky to fill.

Pilot capless feels nice quality and it writes smoothly. As expected the medium nib is more of a fine to medium. Cartridge converter is quite low volume and difficult to fill fully, it is also impossible to get the pen deep enough in my 1/3 full Pilot 50ml ink pot to fill it, as it isn’t long enough to reach the ink. Had to buy small ink bottle to be able to fill it from instead.
Delivery from Iguana was impressively fast.

Hello Mark,

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're glad to hear you're enjoying the quality and smooth writing experience of the Pilot Capless. It's true that the converter’s capacity and design can present some challenges, especially with low ink levels. We have sent you an email with some tips.

We’re also pleased that our delivery met your expectations. If you ever need assistance or filling tips, we're always happy to help!
