Gel refill Inplace for Parker

[Dieseldoc]

Found ou tthe Most of the Gel refill like G2 body is much longer that that of a Parker refill. So if one wanted to use Gel refill in a Parker designed kit , what , who's Gel fill will fit or do you just shorten the Gel fill body..Problem with that is your customer may not know how to shorted refill. Suggestions!!

Parker makes a gel refill. Haven't used it myself so I can't vouch for it but it is a Parker branded refill.

Ken, good to know. Thanks for the info. Will check with local Staples.

I've had excellent luck with the Monteverde Parker style gel refills. Bad luck with Unibene (some no name brand I found on Amazon). I haven't tried the Parker branded ones.

Edit: FWIW, I recently got converted to the Schmidt EasyFlow 9000 refills, which are Parker style. They're a ballpoint rather than a gel, but they're so ridiculously smooth that I prefer them to gel now.

Did a little research on Parker style refill length. Most are 97.5MM where the Gel refill are 110.6MM length. However the Schmidt 9000M length is 98.00 and like Andrew says they write just as good as a gel.
Made trip to Office max and found. Parker Quick Gel OL 98.1 so it fit well in a kit made for std Parker roller ball. Have some Schmidt 9000m coming to see what write best. One think for sure Parker is way more costly and Schmidt.
