Refills for Reminder Clip Ballpoint

[WillSW]

Does anyone know where to get refills that will fit in a Reminder Clip ballpoint? Either vintage ones that still write or new ones that function well. They would be for this pen:

The K refills will fit Reminder Clip ballpoints, but the end is round rather than tapered, so the action will be a lot stiffer. I have a Masterpiece barleycorn Reminder Clip and I use them in it. The taper end refills have not been made in years.

 

Edit: Also - in the fourth photo it looks as if you have pull the cap off. The pen unscrews. I hope that is not damage I see.

I'm afraid it might be damage! When the pen arrived the black part (I guess it's the inner-cap) was not in any way connected to the cap. Hmm! I guess I may be going over to the repair forum with this guy. Thanks for the help.

I have a couple of Sheaffer ballpoints. Teri at Peyton Pens loaded them with Monteverde refills before shipping them to me.

I'm not sure but I think my question is the same as above. I'm trying to find refills for this Shaeffer ballpoint which I bought over 30 years ago in the UK and brought with me to the States. All advice will be appreciated. Cheers, John C.

Look for Monteverde refills specifically for the Sheaffer ballpoints. Teri at Peyton has some in black or blue. Monteverde refills for Sheaffers are also at the larger suppliers in a a few additional colors. Be sure to confirm with the seller before ordering.

The unit in the pen is a "Capless gel #S42." The spares I have are "SoftRoll #S13."

Thanks for the response I will check those out and let you know how I fare. Thanks again, cheers, John C.

Also note that Monteverde makes both ballpoint and gel refills that fit Reminder Clip pens. Teri at Peyton Street Pens has both kinds. She loaded a gel refill in a Reminder Clip I purchased, and it's nice and smooth.

 

You can remove the tapered end-plug from the original cartridge and put it on the Monteverde if you want a less-stiff clip action. The ends pop out easily. Teri kindly included a handful of original tapered-end cartridges (dried up) with my order for me to experiment with. I really don't see much difference between the two, but others may prefer the tapered ends.

Thanks for the advice. I tried the Monteverde refills and they work beautifully. Thanks again, best wishes, John C.
