The piston converter for Safari-style pens. 0.8ml capacity, red twist knob, guideposts for secure fit.
Why This Exists
The Lamy Z28 converter lets you use bottled fountain pen ink instead of disposable cartridges — opening up thousands of ink colours while reducing waste. It's designed specifically for Lamy's Safari-style pens with a guidepost system that clicks securely into place.
With a simple piston mechanism operated by the red twist knob, filling is straightforward: dip the nib in ink, twist to draw it up, and you're ready to write. At 0.8ml capacity, it holds slightly less than a T10 cartridge but the trade-off is worth it for ink variety and sustainability. The two guideposts on the sides ensure the converter sits firmly in Safari, AL-star, Vista, Joy, Lx, and Nexx models — preventing leaks and wobbling that can occur with generic converters.
What Makes It Good
- Piston fill mechanism — red twist knob operates smooth, reliable piston action
- Guidepost system — two side posts click into Safari-style pens for secure fit
- 0.8ml ink capacity — decent fill for everyday writing
- Proprietary Lamy design — engineered specifically for Safari family
- Reusable and refillable — eliminates cartridge waste permanently
- Rubber seal — prevents leaks where converter meets pen feed
Who This Is For
Perfect for Lamy Safari, AL-star, Vista, Joy, Lx, or Nexx owners who want to use bottled inks. Ideal if you're tired of limited cartridge colours or want to reduce disposable plastic waste.

Amazing!!!!! there is nothing like this store in Hamilton or even Auckland, speciality stationery and so much of it is Japanese, my fav! Very cute store. Penco, Midori, Supreme, Moleskine, etc. inside an old fashioned arcade, easy enough to find.

Tom stocks some of the best quality and designed stationary products you can find in New Zealand. His customer service is also top draw and excellent. I had a few issues with a pen I had bought, Tom offered some tips to help work through and after that didn’t work he offered some store credit to try something else. I would highly recommend and will be making sure to buy as much of my stationary products as possible from SuperKiosk in the future! Keep up the great work Tom!

Such a great find! Love their range - quality stationery you don’t see everywhere. Service was awesome—ordered at night, shipped the next morning, and arrived the day after. Will definitely shop here again.
