Imperial rollerball compatability

[jchurch]

Hi Folks, I have a customer asking me to convert an Imperial fountain pen to a Rollerball. I tried a few of the rollerball fronts from some of the other CSUSA kits that I have, but none of them seem to fit. Does anyone know if there is another that will work, or is the Imperial a "one off" when it comes to the components used. Man, I wish CSUSA still had the Imperials and Emperors.
thanks,
Jim

I think the Lotus is interchangeable, but I believe that style is even more rare and expensive.

I thought they were interchangable with all the full sized pens. Gent, Statesman, Emperor, Lotus and Imperial.

I think Dawn has some of the Lotus or Imperials on Exoticblanks.com

Only the Lotus and Imperial are exchangable but as you said Exotic's has the Imperial but if you don't want to but a complete set LMK and I'll trade your f/p nib for a rollerball.

Hi guys, thank you very much for all the info. It looks like Ed and Dawn are out of the Rollerballs right now. I didn't even know they had Imperials! Roy, thank you for the offer of an exchange, I'll PM you shortly.
