Recommend a Gel Refill for a Pelikan Rollerball Please

[OCArt]

Any ideas for a gel refill that would fit a Pelikan rollerball R400?  I tried a Pilot G2 but the tip section won't fit through the pen.

Thanks in advance!

Pilot refills have wider tips than most other brands. You might have better luck with the brands that use the more standard refill geometry. Examples include Pentel Energel, Uniball Signo, Paper Mate Inkjoy gel, Bic Gelocity, the new Sharpie gels, and Tul gel. I'm sure there are others, but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

 

Good luck!

OHTO will fit 100% as they make the Pelikan rollerball refills.

Will the OHTO also fit the R200? I have been looking for something other than the medium pointed Pelikan refill. Somewhere I saw that the OHTO comes in ef/f as well as medium. Also, they have black, blue and red in the f/ef IIRC. medium has a much wider selection of colors.

 

Now if only I can remember where I saw them listed.

 

BTW thank you for the additional information

It should fit perfect as OHTO is the one who manufactures Pelikan 338s. My OHTO and Pelikan refills are exactly the same in physical size.

 

However OHTO stopped producing the colors. They produce C-305 (5mm tip) in black, blue and red. C-304, C-307 and C-310 are all black now:

They also stopped the G-300 series, the gel version of the same refill size.

 

Kind regards,
