SCHMIDT® Fountain Pen Technology

and Cartridge-Rollerball-System

The culture of writing is celebrated by the use of the most precious writing instrument, the fountain pen. Therefore, we don’t accept any compromise when the quality of your writing instrument is concerned.

Against this background, we have been developing and manufacturing complete fountain pen modules of the very highest quality for the world’s major brands for decades.

Fountain pen nib for soft writing with ink

SCHMIDT® fountain pen technology is offering a vast variety of choices for the design of your fountain pens. For decades SCHMIDT Technology has been developing and producing finest fountain pen nib units for the most famous brands of the world.

The SCHMIDT® fountain pen programme offers a wide array of different writing nibs of different materials and surface treatments.

This range is completed by a collection of piston converters and most recently a ready-to-be-build-in piston fountain pen unit.

In addition to SCHMIDT® fountain pen technology, SCHMIDT® RollingBall front parts have been developed, which allow the creation of sets.

SCHMIDT® ink feeding system FH 452
ensures a reliable function in all situations. Even in the cabin of an aircraft, where the conditions are really extreme, this system guarantees absolute security.

Cabin pressure

…safe on everyday life conditions.
Extensive tests in co-operation with ­Lufthansa have confirmed: SCHMIDT® ink feeding systems meet the highest safety requirements.

Cabin pressure

… flexible with decrease of pressure.
With increasing flight altitude, the cabin pressure decreases and the SCHMIDT® ink feeding system fills. Even in this extreme situation SCHMIDT® fountain pen technology comes up to the highest requirements of a first-rate quality product.

Cabin pressure

… reliable in cruising altitude.
In an altitude of 11000 m the cabin pressure decreases to a value corresponding to an altitude of 2500 m above sea level (approx. 750 mbar). Even under these extreme conditions the precise SCHMIDT® ink feeding system guarantees writing pleasure without leakage.

The SCHMIDT® Cartridge-Rollerball-System PRS is the innovative basis for new rollerball pen concepts in premium quality.

Thanks to its specially developed low-wear ball tip, the SCHMIDT® cartridge-rollerball-system PRS comes up with previously unreached durability.

The SCHMIDT® cartridge-rollerball-system PRS follows the functional principle of a fountain pen with common ink cartridges.
The writing tip is used again and again and will not be discarded.

Writing instruments, fitted with the SCHMIDT® cartridge-rollerball-system PRS are therefore not only very economical but in particular environmentally friendly.

Inner sealing caps for fountain pens and RollingBall
The fountain pen nib units FH 1 – FH 241 are suitable for the use of fountain pens with “snap fit caps”.
In this case, the sealing holds the cap on the pen housing. A sealing is supplied together with the fountain pen nib unit. For the fixation of the sealing in the fountain pen cap, the following versions are available:

Screw sealing
to be screwed into the turned part of the fountain pen cap

Tolerance compensation sealing
To be pressed with “compensation of the length tolerance” into the turned part of the fountain pen cap

Screw sealing
to be screwed into the turned part of the fountain pen cap

“click” sealings

For nib wing spans of 6.1 mm and 7.0 mm, these inner sealing caps are available as “click” sealings with a sound, audible “click”.
For RollingBall front parts these types of sealings are also available without ventilation hole.
