STAEDTLER Lumocolor 316 F — wet-wipe universal pen for film and smooth surfaces
non-permanentF 0.6 mmBox of 4Refillable
The STAEDTLER Lumocolor non-permanent pen 316 F is a universal pen with a line width of approx. 0.6 mm, supplied as a STAEDTLER box of 4 in assorted colours. It writes on film, glass and other smooth surfaces with water-soluble ink that wipes off with a damp cloth, so the same surface can be reused.
The tip is locked and cannot be pushed into the barrel, the barrel and cap are polypropylene with a housing made of 97% recycled plastic, and the pen is airplane-safe thanks to automatic pressure equalisation. Black is lightfast. Made in Germany.
Before you order: This is a wet-wipe pen, not a dry-erase whiteboard marker: it needs a damp cloth to remove, and it is not waterproof on paper or labels.
What's in the Box
- 1 × STAEDTLER box with 4 Lumocolor 316 F pens in assorted colours
What It Means in Practice
