Customizable Multi Pens
Part One: The Uni Style Fit.
Multi pens are a convenient tool for note-taking and office work,
but even the best conventional multi pens only offer a few basic colors and maybe a mechanical pencil.
What if you don’t use green ink?
What if you’d rather have orange or pink, or even a second mechanical pencil?
This is where customizable multi pens come in.
Unlike normal multi pens,
these pens feature a range of separate body and refill components,
so you can design your perfect multi pen from the ground up.
Let’s take a look now atone of our most popular customizable multi-pens
the Uni Style Fit.
The Style Fit includes a wide variety of body styles and colors.
They are available in one, three, and five refill varieties.
Among the three and five refill multi pens, there are two different lines,
the standard Style Fit
and the Style Fit Meister.
The standard pen bodies feature colorful plastic bodies,
a push tab mechanism,
and a large clear grip area to let you see the ink colors inside.
The Meister series offers a more refined, professional style,
with metallic body colors and a discrete ink window in the barrel.
The five refill Meister pen bodies also feature a push tab mechanism,
while the three refill Meister uses a twist mechanism.
The Style Fit brings together writing components from some of Uni’s most popular product lines.
The gel ink refills use Uni-ball’s Signo ink, known for its vivid colors and waterproof, fade-resistant qualities.
There are over a dozen colors to choose from, each available in 0.28, 0.38, and 0.5 millimeter tip sizes.
The ballpoint refills use Jetstream ink,
which is specially formulated to be smoother, more consistent,
and more vibrant than conventional ballpoint pens.
Three colors are available, in 0.7 and 1 millimeter tip sizes.
Lastly, the 0.5 millimeter mechanical pencil component comes pre-loaded with Uni’s NanoDia lead, which is infused
which is infused with diamond nanoparticles to make it strong and long-lasting.
To assemble the pen, start by unscrewing the barrel.
Inside, you’ll see mounting slots for each of the refills.
Insert the refills into the mounting slots until they click securely into place.
Once you’ve installed all of the refills, reassemble the pen and you’re ready to go.
To use the pen, push down on the tab corresponding to the component you want to use.
The tabs aren’t labelled,
but you can always use the clear part of the pen body to remind yourself which component goes with each tab.
To retract the refill, push down slightly on one of the other tabs and release.
When using the mechanical pencil, you can extend the lead by pushing down on the tab
or on the top of the pen, if you’re using one of the Meister Style Fit bodies.
The five refill Meister pen body also includes a refillable eraser under the cap.
To refill the lead in the mechanical pencil, unscrew the pen barrel to expose the refill components.
Next, pull off the tip of the pencil component.
This can take a strong pull.
Add a few leads to the storage tube,
then replace the tip
and reassemble the pen.
With over twenty body components and fifty refill components to choose from,
the possible combinations are almost unlimited.
