Sailor Fountain Pen Maintenance Kit
The Sailor Fountain Pen Maintenance Kit is a practical accessory designed to simplify the cleaning, maintenance and refilling of compatible Sailor fountain pens. This versatile kit helps keep nibs and feed systems in optimal condition, prolonging the performance of the pen and ensuring a consistently enjoyable writing experience over time.
An Essential Tool for Fountain Pen Care
Every fountain pen benefits from regular maintenance to ensure consistent ink flow and prevent ink residue from accumulating inside the feed and nib. Sailor developed this kit specifically to make these maintenance tasks easier and more convenient for fountain pen users.
Thanks to its interchangeable nozzle system, the kit allows several different maintenance operations to be carried out using a single syringe body, providing a practical solution for routine cleaning and ink handling.
Three Functions in One Kit
The kit includes several interchangeable accessories that allow different maintenance procedures:
• Cleaning nozzle for flushing ink residues from the nib and feed.
• Ink intake and refilling needle for transferring ink directly from bottled ink.
• Reusable empty cartridge for filling with bottled fountain pen ink and using it in compatible Sailor fountain pens.
This versatility makes the kit particularly useful for users who enjoy changing ink colours frequently or maintaining multiple fountain pens.
Simple and Effective Cleaning
The cleaning nozzle allows water to be flushed through the pen's feed system in a controlled manner, helping to remove dried ink residues and accumulated deposits. This procedure is especially recommended before changing ink colours or after a pen has remained unused for an extended period.
Regular cleaning helps preserve nib performance and contributes to a smoother and more reliable writing experience.
Use Your Favourite Bottled Inks
One of the most useful components included in the kit is the reusable empty cartridge. This accessory allows users to fill a cartridge directly from bottled ink and then install it in a compatible fountain pen just like a standard Sailor cartridge.
This provides access to a much wider range of ink colours and formulations while maintaining the convenience of cartridge-based filling.
Compatibility
This maintenance kit has been designed exclusively for use with compatible Sailor fountain pens.
According to Sailor's official specifications, it is not suitable for certain Sailor-made fountain pens, including models such as the Realo, Chalana and other fountain pens equipped with alternative filling systems.
If you are unsure whether your fountain pen is compatible, we will be happy to assist you.

The Sailor Philosophy
Founded in Hiroshima in 1911, Sailor is one of the most respected names in Japanese writing instruments.

"Proper care is part of the pleasure of writing with a fine fountain pen."

Práctico y efectivo.
Me viene muy bien para cambiar de tinta sin dejar trazas en el plumín ni el alimentador y me evita cargar y descargar varias veces el convertidor para hacer pasar el agua. Me deja también la pluma en condiciones cuando la guardo y la cambio por otra.
