Upgrading a Kaigelu 316 nib

Phil -  24 Feb 2016 09:00:00 Other articles...

Our Bock size 6 nibs are a perfect fit if you want to upgrade the nib in the ever popular Kaigelu 316 fountain pen

The existing nib and housing can pretty easily be knocked out. Although the Kaigelu 316 has a threaded Section, the housing is not threaded and is lightly glued in place. A Bock size 6 nib in a Bock housing can then be fitted in its place, which again does not interact with the pen's Section thread, but is an excellent push fit with no glue required.

You will also need to replace the ink converter - our Premium push fit converter is ideal for the purpose, as it turns out the the "standard international" converter supplied with the Kaigelue 316 is not as "standard" as it should be.
