Hi Molly- I use Fisher Space Ball Point Refills for this pen. I saw that someone else suggested using Fisher and thought I'd give it a try. So glad I did! Because I'd been so disappointed with Zebra refills for quite some time. My favorite pens (Zebra) were suddenly turning my journals into a dotted, blotchy mess. There's just an even flow of ink while writing with Fisher refills that Zebra simply doesn't have anymore. I have no idea why the Zebra refills tend to leave blots now, resulting in pages of speckled writing (if that makes sense.) It's incredibly annoying. I even switched from the Zebra 301 (my forever trusted favorite) to the F402 pen to see if that would make any difference. It did not. I loved the fine point that came with the steel pen. The glide of the pen across most any paper is amazing. But again the blotchy spots ruin it for me. And perhaps it's just me and the ridiculous standard I have for a writing instrument. I don't know. The Fisher refill is not quite as fine as the one that comes with the Zebra steel pen. But it's still a reasonably fine point. Should you go with Fisher refills, be aware that your Zebra Steel pen won't click and retract normally. In other words, it won't. Or at least mine don't. But that doesn't bother me at all. I have four of the Zebra Steel pens. And I love them...with Fisher refills! I hope my Chronicles of Zebra (sorry) help you select something that suits your specific needs. I feel like a total Amazon dork right now. I hardly ever write reviews. I know. How selfish.

All zebra pens use the same refill. As of today, 12/13/14, their is only one zebra refill that fits all their pens.

Go to You Tube and look up f-701 Space Ink refill. All you have to do is take a bushing out of the front of the pen and then you can use the space refill and write upside down if you want to.

Use small wire cutters to shorten the spring that the refill uses at the pen's tip and it'll work perfectly. Do it a tiny bit at a time until it works properly.

I just saw Wal-Mart has the refills for $1.05. The refill number is ZEB85511.

You have several options. One option is to purchase a "Parker Quink Rollerball Refill" medium point. Another option is to purchased a "Montverde Refill to fit Parker Roller Ball Pens." My personal favorite is to use a Pilot G2 refill. The G2 refill will be a little short for the Urban housing so you may have to put a small pencil eraser or a spring in the bottom of the housing for it to fit: this is a small amount of trouble to go through for a great refill.

I found a refill that works, although it has to be modified just a bit. The Penatia by Parker. It fits with the cap on and writes great. BUT you have to put a bit of wadded up paper (or whatever filler you want) in the tube. If you just put it in with the spring in there it will work, but have a springiness to it when you write. Others may find that okay, but I changed it. Works great now and was a 30 second fix. Well worth it for this great pen (especially after trying many others)!

Hello, no I think you can refill it with Parker refills, but the small ones. It is the same refill as for all the multipens, they call it mini refill, and they are sell by a lot of brands, like Parker, rotring, lamy or monteverde which propose many funny colors and sizes of writing. Hoping it will help you. I love this pen and he responds to all I wanted for a multipens, which Parker quality and look.

I have this exact pen and you can use any .38 refill for the Frixion Ball Slim pen. I have traded out several colors that I ordered from JetPens.

No. The single refills do not work in this pen. Once it is used up, it's trash! No refills available. The ink doesn't last long, either.

This pen takes a Cross slim gel refill, which I buy from Amazon, but they are available from most office supply chains.

if the pen twists, I will bet you can replace the refill with a cross pen refill. Go to OFFICEMAX and a rep will be glad to help you fit the pen. I'm going to purchase the set, but I love blue ink!! Why can't they use blue blue ink????

Many retailers have Parker pen refills, such as Office Max and Staples. You can also get refills online here on amazon.

I don't buy cartridges. I'd use the refillable cartridge that came with the pen. I use Noodler'd ink to refill mine. Writes very well. It's all in the ink.

Hi, Thank you for your question. This pen comes standard with a black medium point refill. However, you may order a blue or black fine tip refill for this pen if you wish.

Hello Carlos, yes you can. The refills for this pen are the D1 standard pen refill, available in blue, black, red and even an orange highlighter, and are made by Parker, Rotring (now owned by Parker), Lamy and others. Usually you will be best to buy them on line, probably in packs of 5. I don't know which country you live in, or I could give you links to suppliers. But Google, Amazon and ebay will find you some I'm sure. Any more questions, just ask, Best regards, Andy Assinder
