Brause Bandzug Classic Fountain Pen
Draw and letter with a Brause Bandzug nib fitted to our Classic Fountain Pen. The Brause Bandzug nib is enjoyed by artists who like to draw wider lines, especially for German Gothic and broadpoint lettering. You can also use these nibs to lay down broad lines for strong visual effects. Bangzug nibs come in a range of six sizes measured across the front of the nib from 1mm to 6mm. We only stock the 2mm size which is a good compromise.
Useful Information
Brause Bandzug nibs have a topside reservoir used to store ink and paint when the nib is dipped. You can retain the topside reservoir when you use this nib in your Classic Fountain Pen if you make sure the reservoir tabs don't press against the feed. You can also remove the reservoir because you no longer need to dip these nibs - ink flows easily to the tip. The reservoir slides off and presses on easily. You can also order this pen with our overfeed - it rests easily on top of the Brause Bandzug nib as long as you remove the reservoir.
Benefits
- Use any ink - even India ink and most drawing paints - you cannot plug up this pen
- Slip nibs in and out to change the shape of your drawn line
- Slip feeds in and out to change the flow rate
- Easy to clean - disassemble the pen to clean it in 20 seconds
- Large capacity reservoir lets you draw all day - remove the reservoir to double your carrying capacity
- Optional overfeed can work with the thinner Bandzug nibs if you want to expand the width and length of your drawn lines. Be sure to remove the topside reservoir on the nib if you plan to use an overfeed in the pen.
