Platinum Fountain Pen Fountain Pen Converter Silver 700A#9

Fits Platinum pens and most Kuratake brush pens. Use with Platinum Carbon Black. Perfect.

Best converters I own, bar none. Why Pilot and Sailor seem unable to do this is beyond my scope of comprehension.

I still have the first one. Works great. I use them for Platinum 3776 Century, Plaisir, Prefounte, and Preppys. These are more expensive than the Preppy and the Prefounte - but the pen plus converter is still cheaper than a Lamy Safari without a converter. I still have my first ones from ten years ago. I just add more as I discover other ink colors I want in the rotation, or if I want to keep a pen stashed somewhere to jot a note. The pens work even weeks or months later. These are workhorses; easy to clean; no maintenance (maybe silicone grease once a year), and keep up with flow and capacity from <EF> (0.2 mm) through <M> stub (0.5 mm). Wider than that, I just switch to the Lamy Safari's 1.1 mm stub.

This converter was purchased for my Platinum Plaisir. It fit perfectly as it is an official Platinum converter. It hold a decent amount of ink and is easy to clean.

I love my Platinum Preppy(s) for every day writing. If they were a little wider in the body, they'd be perfect. Once I run out of the cartridge that was included, I pop my favorite inks into one of these converters, and voila! A well-made, but inexpensive fountain pen great for beginners, folks on a budget, and someone (like me) who like it's everyday appeal.

I needed an EF pen so I bought this converter to go with it. So far it has worked well. It was less expensive than the similar item in gold trim, and functionally there is no difference. I have only had it a short while so cannot comment on how well it lasts.

Doesn't leak. Good capacity lasts a while.

These are fantastic for the Preppy pens I bought them for. I use them with Carbon Black ink, and they rock! I have not had any issues with leaking or any other problems.
