Parker 75 Question

[Carguy]

I am certain this has been answered somewhere before, but for the life of me, I cannot recall that answer. Parker made a 75 “fibre touch” or whatever they called it that I think some confuse with a true rollerball, which I don’t believe it was. I would happily stand corrected as it pertains to my next question.....are there any “modern” roller ball refills that fit and function in the 75 fibre touch/tip section?

 

I’d love to convert this to a rollerball to carry with my fountain pen, but I don’t seem to recall that this is possible?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

There is some toolmaster in England that claims to do this kind of conversions. I think it is More Engineering.  But I think there have to be some in the US too.

That Parker 75 website suggests that the adapter for the Big Red also works in a Parker 75 section:

The same suggestion was made in this FPN thread, although it is also stated here that a USA rollerball might fit without any adapter:

That would be me!
I can convert Parker fibre tips to nearly any other type of refill.

The fibre refills can be turned into rollerball refills without any changes to the pen. See my post for a how to.
