European-size rollerball refill. Capless ink technology, 0.5mm tip, won't dry out for 2-3 days uncapped.
Why This Exists
The Schneider Topball 850 is a European-size rollerball refill — the standard 110.6mm format that fits dozens of brands including Aurora, Caran d'Ache, Faber-Castell, Montegrappa, Pelikan, Rotring, and Visconti. It's made in Germany by a company that's been refining ink chemistry since 1938, and it's one of the top-selling rollerball refills worldwide.
What sets the 850 apart is its capless ink technology. The ink won't dry out even if you leave the cap off for 2-3 days — a genuinely useful feature if you're the kind of person who forgets to recap. The 0.5mm conical stainless steel tip delivers comfortable, precise writing that's light-resistant to ISO 12757-2 standards. Reliable, durable, and designed to work when you need it.
