help Pilot Acroball FAQ
Is the Pilot Acroball a gel pen or a ballpoint pen?
The Pilot Acroball is technically a ballpoint pen, but it uses Pilot's low-viscosity Acro ink that delivers a writing feel closer to a gel pen. This hybrid ink formulation combines the smoothness of gel with the quick-drying, smudge-resistant properties of traditional ballpoint ink.
How does the Pilot Acroball compare to the Pilot G2?
While the Pilot G2 is a true gel pen known for vibrant ink and very smooth writing, the Acroball offers similar smoothness with faster-drying ink that resists smearing. The Acroball is often preferred by left-handed writers because its low-viscosity ballpoint ink sets more quickly than gel.
What tip sizes does the Pilot Acroball come in?
The Pilot Acroball is most commonly available in 0.7mm medium tip, with some markets offering 0.5mm fine variants. The 0.7mm size is the most widely distributed and is favored for its balance between line width and smooth ink flow.
Is the Pilot Acroball refillable?
Yes, the Pilot Acroball is refillable using Pilot's standard ballpoint refill cartridges, available in black, blue, and red ink. This makes it more economical and environmentally friendly than disposable alternatives.
