Everyday writing pen, 0.7 mm red, six pack

This uni-ball Jetstream RT ballpoint pen uses hybrid ink that combines gel-like smoothness with ballpoint drying speed. The fine 0.7 mm tip produces precise lines for notes, drawing and general office tasks. Wirecutter has named it the top everyday ballpoint pick since 2013. The pack contains six red-ink pens ready for immediate use.

Retractable mechanism, embossed grip, quick-dry ink

Click the retractable tip to start writing; no cap to lose. The embossed grip and stainless steel accents provide control during long sessions. Quick-drying ink resists smudges, which helps left-handed writers keep pages clean. Super Ink technology bonds pigment deep into paper fibres for water and fade resistance.

Check ink colour preference

Verify that red ink suits your marking or editing workflow, as the pack contains only red cartridges. Confirm the 0.7 mm fine point matches the line width you need for forms or illustrations. Ensure your storage space can accommodate a pack measuring 1.1 x 6.7 x 14 centimetres.
