Full-size Sailor converters are too long to allow the barrel of these pocket pens to screw closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this mini converter also be used in standard full-size Sailor pens?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Because it uses the standard proprietary Sailor section fitting, it can attach to full-size Sailor models (such as the 1911 or Pro Gear Standard), although its ink capacity is calibrated for compact barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I fill my fountain pen using the mini converter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nInsert the converter firmly into your pen's grip section. Lower the nib fully into your bottled ink until the feed and breather hole are submerged. Rotate the black twist knob counter-clockwise to lower the piston, then turn clockwise to draw ink into the reservoir. Wipe the nib and grip clean before reassembling the barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean and maintain the mini converter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDraw clean, cool water into the converter and expel it repeatedly by cycling the piston back and forth until the flushed water runs completely clear. Allow all components to dry before filling with fresh ink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the customer support and refund policy?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOfficial customer service inquiries are supported at szjyf@outlook.com following order placement.
