12-Pack Retractable Ballpoint Pens

This set contains twelve black retractable ballpoint pens from Amazon Basics. Each pen uses oil-based ink with a 0.3 mm line size and a 1.2 mm point for bold marks. The soft grip and round barrel suit students and professionals during long writing sessions.

Oil-Based Ink and Retractable Mechanism

The oil-based ink provides consistent flow on standard paper but may smear on glossy surfaces before it dries. The click-retractable tip protects pockets and bags from stray marks when the pen is not in use. Ambidextrous design works for left- and right-handed writers alike.

0.3 mm Line Size

The 0.3 mm line size determines how fine the written line appears and is the key specification for deciding if this pack fits the task. Buyers who need broader strokes for marking or signing should choose a larger point. These pens do not accept refill cartridges.
