Kaweco Gel Roller Sport black

The Kaweco Sport gel roller in black features the characteristic octagonal cap and compact body that have defined this series since the 1930s. Crafted from plastic, it measures 10.5 cm when closed – compact enough for your trouser pocket. Place the cap on the rear end and it extends to 13.5 cm, sitting comfortably in your hand. Inside, a gel refill with ceramic ball transfers ink smoothly and effortlessly onto paper.

Features

• Gel refill with ceramic ball: The ceramic ball rolls precisely and with minimal wear across the paper surface. Ink flows evenly without interruption – the writing feel is smooth and gliding, even when writing quickly.
• Compact format, comfortable writing length: Closed, the pen measures 10.5 cm and fits into any trouser or jacket pocket. With the cap attached, it reaches 13.5 cm – a well-balanced length for relaxed writing over longer periods.
• Octagonal cap in retro style: The distinctive shape isn't merely decorative – the facets prevent the pen rolling away on the desk and make it easy to grip even without a clip.
• Black plastic design: The body is crafted from matt black plastic that feels light and pleasantly cool to the touch. The low weight allows for extended writing without fatigue.
• Made in Germany: Manufacturing and assembly in Germany.

Use & Tips

• Everyday pocket companion: The Sport fits into shirt or trouser pockets without a protective case. Cap on, cap on the back – ready to write in seconds.
• Paper choice: The gel refill writes particularly smoothly on smooth, well-calendered paper. On very absorbent paper, the ink may spread slightly wider – a lower paper weight is not advisable in this case.
• Left-handed writing: The ceramic ball releases comparatively little ink at once, which significantly reduces smudging when writing left-handed.
• Refill replacement: The cap at the rear end of the barrel can be unscrewed to replace the gel refill. Kaweco offers replacement refills suitable for the Sport.
• Travel use: Gel rollers are sensitive to pressure changes in aircraft. The cap seals the refill securely – nevertheless, it's advisable to carry the pen in your bag with the tip pointing upwards.
