Isn't plastic supposed to be bad?

Normally, yes. We tend to stick with materials like titanium, copper, and bronze because of their toughness and corrosion resistance. Ultem, however has high mechanical strength and heat resistance which makes it ideal for harsh environments. Natural and Black are easy to find but additional colors is rare. Thankfully, we were finally able to get our hands on a special run of opaque Green and Blue from a mill that had a small batch left over.

  • Ultem® 1000 body material
  • Chemical resistant, flame retardant
  • Titanium mechanism
  • Stainless steel clip
  • Three lengths: Standard, Short, Mini
  • Available in Natural, Black, Green, and Blue
  • Custom clip engraving [+$10]
  • Length: 5.6" Standard, 5.1" Short, 4.4" Mini
  • Weight: 0.71oz Standard, 0.70oz Short, 0.58oz Mini
  • Diameter: 0.485"

The Standard [5.6"] comes with a Pilot G2 0.7 mm refill and the Short [5.1"] comes with a Schmidt EasyFlow 9000 medium refill, and the Mini [4.4"] comes with a Pilot G2 Mini 0.7mm refill. Many of our customers like to use their own personal favorites, however, and so we put together a list of compatible refills that work with our pens.

Introducing New Colors

Colored Ultem has been on our wish list since the day we first introduced the material to our lineup but the answer from suppliers and mills has always been the same: material small enough to make pens is rare and the only way to get it is to custom order a GIANT production run of a single color. That is, until our distributor was able to secure some leftover material from a mill that had just finished a large run and had some leftover. The colors are opaque like the black material and it might be years until we get more.

    Ultem fan!

    Ya gotta love ANY pen that has Tactile's fluting texture. The barrel is thick (not slim)and easy to hold. The Ultem is thick and definitely has that "better than plastic feel".

    Excellent pen

    As usual, an excellent writing instrument from Tactile Turn. Pairs well with my ultem pocket knife.
