Zebra bLen Ballpoint Pen 0.5mm

[Description]

Zebra's bLen significantly reduces writing fatigue by minimizing tip vibrations during writing, which is perfect for extended and heavy writing tasks.

What is tip vibration, and why does it cause fatigue?

Usually, friction between the tip and paper causes vibrations that distract the user and put unnecessary stress on the hand as the user instinctively grips tighter to control the tip. This pressure is especially noticeable during long writing sessions.

How can bLen solve this problem?

Zebra developed the "bLen System" to address this issue by adding a shock-absorbing mechanism in the tip, filling gaps between components (which also achieved quiet clicking), and a low center of gravity for added stability.

Additionally, Zebra collaborated with renowned Japanese architect and designer Oki Sato and his studio, Nendo, to design the pen's body. It features a sleek and seamless shape without joints to ensure a comfortable and stable grip, reducing fatigue over extended use.

Zebra's Emulsion Ink

Emulsion ink is a type of ink that mixes oil-based ink and water-based ink using a specific method. This feature allows the ink to provide the smoothness and vivid characteristics of water-based inks, fade-resistant and water-resistant qualities, and the writing feeling of oil-based inks.
