User questions & answers

Question:	Is the pressure that is required to use this pen the same as the regular Zebra Sarasa 1.0mm? I had a hand injury and need to apply little pressure
Answer:	Not familiar with the Sarasa 1.0mm. The Z-grip pens require a normal amount of pressure. I do a lot of writing and the pressure doesn't bother me, but I've not had a hand injury so I can't speak to that. To go with less pressure I'd think you need a gel based pen like the pilot G-2 pen. I love the G-2's as well but it's a lot thicker line, which may not always be convenient.
Question:	What color is the barrel? Is it tinted black or is it clear and completely transparent
Answer:	We recently transitioned the ZEBRA Z-Grip Retractable Ballpoint pen from a clear barrel with oil based ink, to a translucent tinted barrel with low viscosity ink. We cannot guarantee that all of our customers inventory has transitioned.
Question:	I am looking for the old style ballpoint pen, not a rollerball. are these pens the old fashioned ballpoint style or the roller ball style
Answer:	Thanks for your question. It's the new style. I'm kinda like you I wish a lot of things were like they used to be. I use them they the rubber feel and are really light. But remember if you did want to take a chance and try them out and if for some reason you don't like them you can return them with no questions asked. Again thanks for your interest and please keep us in mind on your next purchase. Thomas Schronce c/o RGS Schronce
Question:	Does this pen have a fast drying "gel" ink
Answer:	Hi David, these Z-Grips are ballpoint pens and do not contain gel ink. If you're looking for a gel pen, I would recommend our Sarasa gel pens that DO contain fast drying ink that's tested by an independent 3rd party lab to be faster or as fast as the competition.

Answer:	This is consider as fine point 0.7mm.
Question:	I've had serious and frequent leakage problems. They work fine at first, and then, periodically they leak. Have any of you had leakage problems
Answer:	I've been using these pens daily at work for years & never had one leak... Are you keeping them in a hot car or a bag/pocket that may be getting smashed? I can't think of how they could be leaking unless they were damaged in some way, possibly during shipping?
