Yes. The pressurised ink (cryo ink) cartridge is specifically designed for challenging conditions, including greasy, oily or damp surfaces. Pressurised ink (cryo ink) maintains a consistent ink flow, making it a preferred option in food factories where standard ballpoint pens may fail.
This pen uses pressurised ink (cryo ink), making it suitable for an even wider range of demanding environments. It performs in extreme cold down to -15°C (5°F) and up to 60°C (140°F), making it ideal for use in freezers and cold stores. It also writes reliably on wet, powdery and greasy surfaces, as well as underwater and even upside down.
The housing is manufactured using FDA food contact approved materials and conforms with European food contact regulation EC 1935/2004.
Ink cartridges comply with ISO 12757-2, the recognised international standard for ballpoint pen performance.
The pen is moulded from shatter-resistant polymers to help prevent splintering if crushed. It is designed for the harsh demands of food manufacturing environments.
The strong pocket clip is virtually unbreakable, and the large lanyard loop supports effective tool control procedures.
The pen features a retractable cartridge mechanism with a unique cartridge suspension system. This provides a firm writing experience without the need for a traditional metal spring, reducing loose internal components.
The European ink cartridge features a tungsten carbide ball for anti-abrasion durability and smooth ink flow. It delivers more than 10 kilometres of writing length, supporting long-term use in high-volume environments.
