Disassembly Of Jinhao 250


George697

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I'm trying to replace the nib of my Jinhao 250 with a new nib, the one on my pen leaves a line that is much too thick and wet. I tried removing the nib by two methods: by grabbing on to the bottom of the feed (which is smooth, no fins) and face of the nib as well as by the wings of the nib. Its not budging. If it not meant to come out? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I tried googling it but the 250 does not seem to get a lot of attention in that department.

Remove the ink supply. Grasp the nib and feed firmly, and pull straight out. I doubt that such dis-assembly

is intended. Wrapping a wide rubber band around the assembly would help. Have you had the pen a long

time ? Maybe a soak and a wiggle would help.

 

I have several Jinhao x250's. Average Ebay price is $14.97 / 4 = $3.74 . free shipping. All of mine are smooth,

wet writers >> medium-fine. They write continuously until the converter is empty. Great value. I don't know

whether another nib would be improvement. Do you have just the one ? Consider trying another one.

Ill try another one then, thanks! Also i was thinking of getting a x450 and getting a 1.1 stub on the sucker, any experience with this?

I've put 1.1mm stub nibs from Goulet Pens on Jinhao x450s and x750s, as well as a 159. All of these pens (tend to) have generous flow, and work well with the Goulet stubs. The only thing to be a little careful of is that the x750s seem to come in a few varieties - some of them have a larger nib and feed, that doesn't 'fit' so well with the #6 nibs. So far, I haven't had that problem with an x450, though - so that's probably a good bet.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
