What Piston Converter Goes With A 95?


50000cal

Recommended Posts

A few months back I asked the forum what this mysterious pen was and it turned out to be a Parker 95, which is currently discontinued. I want to get more use out of that pen now but I really hate the suction... converter... thing. Is there a piston converter that goes with a 95? I know it's a model from two decades ago and maybe converters weren't a thing, so pen companies probably didn't consider that when designing their pens.

A New Parker piston Converter should work fine in theory. As far as I know, Parker has used the same cartridge/converter shape since the the 45-the first. I popped a new piston converter in my early 45. It fit great. Unless there is something unusual about the 95 a standard Parker converter should fit.

I think I found it. Apparently Parker only manufactures one converter for years now. It doesn't even have a model name, unlike Lamy or Pilot converters. Here is the link if anyone wants to see: http://www.gouletpens.com/pkr-s0050300/p/PKR-S0050300

 

I've seen one review mention fitting a 95 and it worked as well. Thanks for the help benbot.

Parker have introduced around ten converters over the years for its c/c pens. Even the modern parker converters are found in three different designs / shape /sizes. This is one of the three.

      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
