SheafferSlim Rollerball Refill - Blue Medium - Blister Card

Ok so this refill (Sheaffer Slim Roller II Refill) is made in Germany and very, very, very high quality. I have a problem though. I wanted to fit it in a Shaeffer VFM Matte Black roller ball pen. It does not fit. I repeat it does not fit. The tip of the refill superbly fits but the refill is too tall and you can't screw the top half of the pen. This refill is so tall the top half of the pen does not even get to the thread of the bottom half.I was very mad about this. But before I threw this expensive refill away I decided to try it on my other pens to see if it worked in them. It FITS the LAMY Tipo Capless Aluminum Rollerball Pen perfectly. So I used it there.

Such a smooth, easy and effortless writing experience. No problems at all on any surface.

After searching for a refill for my vintage Targa I finally found that this is probably the closest fit although not perfect. It is just slightly too long but so minute (hair strand thickness) that it’s probably only noticeable to me. Pictures show closeup of pen closed with refill inserted and without the refill. The issue is the tip is slightly longer not the barrel so not possible to modify in any way. Pen clicks closed and writes well so this is a win for me. I am not sure why the Sheaffer website does not have any mention of replacements for the Targa pens and customer service was no help either, eventually just giving me contact for US distributor.

Product showed up as intended and works well

Works well for the past 2 months.

This replacement ink writes as smooth as the ink that came with my pen.

Great writer and very smooth.

Be careful to make sure that this fits your Sheaffer rollerball pen. Some pens take the "classic" instead. I use this in my 100, and it is great! The flow is good, and the lines are bold--the way that I like it.
