Flex nibs are for ardent calligraphy users! We offer a choice of a Zebra g flex nib, Phosbronze flex and size 5.5 and size 6 stainless steel Ultraflex nib with different tip sizes. Ebonite feeds help keep up with the added ink demands of calligraphy.
The Osprey #5.5 Ultraflex comes tipped with excellent German made material, in EEF (0.4mm), EF(0.5mm), Fine (0.6mm), Med(0.7mm) and Broad(1.0mm), line widths on the cross stroke and up to 2.0mm fully flexed. The #5.5 Ultraflex is fitted with an ebonite feed that provides a steady flow of ink to the nib, supported by a wide mouthed converter, that helps keep up with the ink demands of the nib, for flex writing styles. This complete assembly consisting of the thread-able ‘nib-feed-converter’ system with an outer grip section is what we call as a Flexpert assembly and is available for purchase as spares.
• Inspired by vintage flat top pens of yesteryear, the Milano is machined from beautiful Acrylic and Ebonite material. Ebonite is a natural hard rubber, expect to see slight variation from the pictures (no two pens are alike!).
• Get the flexibility of a dip nib coupled with copious supply of ink, for uninterrupted writing or sketching
• Milano is best suited for folks who prefer a more heavy/ full feel when writing with a pen
• Do not use India Inks or highly pigmented inks, or it will clog the feed. Use bottled fountain pen friendly inks that are Ph neutral in composition
• #5.5ultraflex flexpert assemblies, nib units and osprey custom converters are available as spares/replacements.
• International cartridge or generic international converters do not work with the Zebra G, Phosbronze and Ultraflex series of pens, with the exception of K6 Schmidt converter. We highly recommend adding a spare wide mouthed Osprey converter with the rest of your order, especially if it’s an international order.
