Fisher Pressurized Cartridge

Made in the USA with US and Globally Sourced Packaging and Materials!

When it comes to pens, if you’re anything like us you can’t settle with just any old plastic ballpoint. You expect and deserve more from your pens - much more. Our 30,000 square foot manufacturing facility is located in Boulder City, Nevada, where our products are both hand and machine tested, so you can write confidently with the knowledge that your Fisher Space Pen will never let you down!

The Fisher Bullet Pen

The original Bullet Space Pen was conceived in July of 1948 by Paul Fisher, who was soon machining a new pen design shaped from solid aluminum. This became our first Fisher ball point pen, the #400 Bullet Pen, and arguably the most popular pen of the twentieth century. This pen is now composed of all brass with a chrome finish. Often imitated but never duplicated, the Fisher Bullet Space Pen continues to be our most popular pen.

  • Writes in extreme temperatures from -30 F to +250 F
  • Writes underwater and over wet surfaces.
  • Writes at any angle- even upside down.
  • Each Fisher Space Pen is precision assembled, hand tested, and carries a lifetime promise against all manufacturing defects
  • Cited as an outstanding example of industrial art, the classic design of the Fisher Bullet Pen has been exhibited for years in the New York Museum of Modern Art.
  • The Bullet's timeless styling has been the topic of many art books and magazine articles.

Facts and History of the Space Pens:

The story of the Space Pen really begins with its inventor, Paul C. Fisher. Before he took to making pens, Paul worked in an airplane propeller factory during World War II. It was there that he gained valuable experience with ball bearings, knowledge that would come in handy down the road for creating ballpoints. He later went on to invent the 'universal refill' ink cartridge, which in turn led him to create the first 'Anti-Gravity' pen, patented in 1966. Although it is a popular misconception that NASA invested millions of dollars developing an anti-gravity writing instrument, the fact of the matter is that Paul had been working on the design for years and had invested roughly $1 million dollars into the pens development . Truth be told, in the beginning Fisher didn’t even set out to create a pen specifically for the astronauts; he was simply looking to make a great pen that worked without leaking. In the end he had developed what he considered to be the perfect pen – a pen with ink that would not be exposed to air, rely on gravity, leak or dry up, and that wrote underwater and in extreme temperatures. His breakthrough happened to be perfectly timed with the space race and he offered the pens to NASA for consideration. Two years of testing later and the Space Pen was approved to accompany the Apollo 7 astronauts into space. Despite the old joke that the Russians solved their anti-gravity writing problem by using pencils, Russian cosmonauts actually began to carry Fisher Space Pens on their missions as well, at about the same time that NASA did.

Fishers Pressurized Cartridges:

The secret behind the unique capabilities of our pens lies in the ink cartridge itself. Our refills are hermetically sealed, pressurized with nitrogen gas, and feature a tungsten carbide ballpoint tip - the same extra hard metal that is used to make armor-piercing ammunition. No longer relying on gravity to write, our pens are able to function at any angle, even upside down! In order to prevent leaks from the gas pressure, our ink has to be thick, thixotropic to be exact. Fisher ink is actually more of a gel than a liquid when it is at rest, with a consistency similar to that of toothpaste. It is only when pressure is applied to the ballpoint that the ink will take on the spreadable properties of a liquid, while still retaining the stickiness needed to adhere to nearly any material.

    Had it for 3 years & 7 months as of writing
    Let me preface this by saying it's with a heavy heart my pen just came apart :/ I wonder if they can offer a replacement or if I can use some type of glue/bonding agent.. & this is in part as for why I'm writing this review..I left my room to grab something in the kitchen and was confused because I had just taken the pen from a counter and put in on my desk, then came back to something similar to picture #1 (I had to obviously put the tip-end back in frame as it rolled off? I don't know what would've cause this since I've only ever dropped it once -literally- maybe it's because of the heat and twisting motion over time to 'open/unsheathe' the pen to the full length? I don't know.That said, The feel has ALWAYS been superb- the textured rings near the grip for your thumb/fingers is un-parralled to many pens I've used. It's like when you feel the surface of a smooth object versus a knurled textured one; sure subjectively there are preferences - I suppose for my purposes the grip feels useful as I've had moments writing whilst in the cold, or having somewhat sweaty or even dirty hands (using oils, DIY projects, dirt, etc.) and it certainly helps. It maintains your consistency as you don't have to compensate for any slippage or loss of control say by sweaty fingers lol.I have had a broad use-case experience with it for the past few years. This includes writing poetry, compiling/jotting down measurements, and on different writing materials like scratch pads (as seen in the photos), among small journal books, Moleskin Journals, yellow AMPads (they glide nicely on all but particularly on AMP writing paper).I've had success with the medium point but have sometimes swapped it to Zebra-gel catridges (only takes some sand paper and you can literally use whatever preferred point size, ballpoint, gels, etc. It's a mix of the best worlds. Your favorite pen & favorite smoothness/fineness). The idea is simply to get it to the right width to emulate that of the original ink cartridge & length so as to not apply pressure as it's loaded naturally and interacts with the spring. For the original ink cartridge I've had some wiggle but remedied this with a SMALL strip of painters tape. It eliminates wobble and you're good to go! You can do the same with other pens as well, but unironically with these pens the idea is to keep them & dispose the ink cartridge, not the pen itself (at least not intentionally), so 1 fix & you can keep on rocking & writing, is my point ;)I have a rubber band around the top of the pen so as to keep it from rolling right out of my pockets or rolling off any desk. It's a small hack, for those interested :)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for poke-free pocket carry
    Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2020
    Color: Brushed ChromeVerified Purchase
    I wanted a collapsible pen I could carry in my pants pocket each day just in there with keys and stuff that would be short enough not to create break/poke situations, wouldn't leak or open in my pocket, would have no clip or button to snag on anything, but would still be comfortable enough to use like a regular pen. This does all that.

    I don't even care about the "space" aspects of it, how you can write upside down with it. I just wanted it to be smooth and compact, yet expand into a full size pen and also be tough and nice looking. This is perfect.

    Someone online warned me that the ink cartridges that come in these things are pressurized, and so they were always pushing out a little bit of ink, leading to regular blobs at the tip that had to be cleaned off. They recommended buying some Zebra G-301 gel refills and cutting off about a quarter inch off the end of the plastic tube so it would fit in this pen. So that's what I did and it works great - no ink problems at all, and the other features have otherwise come through.

    The waitress forgets to bring a pen with the credit card bill, the doctor's office sign-in pen has cooties, you need to leave a note somewhere on the fly - it's not like these things happen a lot, but when they do it's nice to have a pen that is always with you whether you've got a shirt pocket to clip one to or not. Keys, wallet, phone, pen. I'm set.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Front Pocket Pen
    Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2012
    Color: ChromeVerified Purchase
    If you like to keep a pen handy for jotting down random thoughts, or signing forms or whatnot with your own pen instead of the communal plastic pen that heaven only knows how many people have handled and spread their germs onto, then this is probably the perfect pen for you. First the form factor makes it perfect for carrying in your front pocket (vs. a shirt pocket). When capped, the pen is fatter and squatter than a normal pen, making it about half the length and 50% thicker than a normal pen, with smooth, rounded ends, meaning that the pen fits into a front pocket better and has no pointy parts to poke or jab you with.

    Second, the pen exudes quality. Its chrome-plated all brass construction gives it a nice heft in the hand and curiously, provides it with near-perfect balance. See, all the weight is in the pen-portion, with almost no weight in the cap, so when you pull the cap off and place it on the back end to make the pen full length, pretty much all of the weight is down low, near where you grab it, and that gives it a pleasant writing feel.

    Third, there's the Space Pen's famous thixotropic ink and pressurized writing cartridge. It'll write standing up or upside down and it'll write on many surfaces that other pens' inks simply won't adhere to -- a quality which makes it perfect for jotting down stuff in situations where your normally reaching for a spare pen and a scrap of something to write on, or when you're signing forms on a clipboard thingy while standing up and using the wall as a makeshift writing surface.

    Of course, the widespread use of smart phones, and especially voice-enabled phones, has cut down on the need for some of this stuff, but these situations still occur frequently enough to make having this pen worthwhile. And that's especially the case if you like to jot down random thoughts and observations on a small notebook, like a softcover moleskine. Plus, my wife still runs into situations where she's jotting down some note on a napkin or a business card, or the back of a magazine or something. And this pen is the pen I reach for in all those situations.

    Bottom Line: this is the all-time best front-pocket/just-in-case pen you can have. And Amazon has it for a great price. Get it and see for yourself.

    5.0 out of 5 stars I have stopped looking for "the" pen - finally!
    Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2013
    Color: ChromeVerified Purchase
    As my wife will tell you, I'm a pen-aholic. We can't go to a store without my veering off to the what's new in the pen aisle. This affliction started when I'd lost a favorite pen of mine which was actually anything but ergonomic, but looked unusual - which was what I liked about it. It had a metal body (always a requirement of mine) with what can only be described as a metal coil (like a shock absorber) which went from the top to the bottom. Like I said, it wasn't necessarily comfortable, but it was an eye-catcher!

    I picked up a Parker Jotter as a replacement. It was of a magnitude lighter in weight than my previous pen and wrote much nicer. I compared my new pen's lines to my lost one's and fell into a trap. My new pen wrote better, so how much better *can* a pen get? What else is out there that I haven't tried? I became a pen-aholic.

    Fast-forward 12 years (yes, the sickness continued that long!), and after experimenting with dozens of relatively inexpensive pens (another of my requirements) which even included a short walk through the land of the fountain pen, you'll find me carrying a Fisher Space Pen daily. I will say I have a soft spot in my heart for the Soft Feel Clic by Bic and the G2 .07 by Pilot.

    The Fisher Space Pen (a.k.a. the "FSP" in various pen forums I've perused) is, by far, the darkest, blackest ballpoint ink ("oil-based") I've found yet. It's a special forumla only Fisher employs, and they put it into pressurized refill so it will write at any angle, or even upside down - even on glass (not that I'd ever need to write on glass, but I tried it, and it worked!). Now, if that wasn't good enough, they put that refill in the most amazing pen case design ever. You could put this in a Parker Jotter pen (or anything that will accept a Jotter's refill) using the refill's included plastic converter top, but I find the bullet pen design so much more interesting...

    You want an eye-catching pen? How about one that collapses to almost half its size when not in use and returns to a normal-sized pen when needed? How about one with spiral-cut edges near the tip - right where you need it - to ensure it doesn't slip through your grip while using it? How about one encased in chrome-covered brass which is polished to almost mercury slipperiness? Not only is this pen a pleasure to write with, it's a joy to just hold and fiddle with! You'll often find me holding this closed pen, floating it among my fingers, enjoying the feeling of its slippery form. The smoothness of this closed pen works in much the same way as Baoding balls are comforting to roll around in the palm of your hand.

    While there is no such thing as "the perfect pen," this comes closest for me. There is zero startup necessary - no scribbling in the margin to get it going. The ink flows as soon as you move the point across the page. The flow is smooth and consistent, the line is a deep, dark black. I once wrote on something and the person I handed it to swiped it with her hand, thinking it would smudge, assuming I'd just written with a wet, gel pen. She was surprised to see it was instantly dry. To me, this means the line it lays is so dark and black, it can apparently pass for an extra-fine gel pen. After a dozen years of experimentation, I've finally stopped looking.
