Ballpoint Pens

Ballpoint pens are everyday writing pens with a small rolling ball at the tip and thick, oil-based ink that dries quickly on paper. They suit notes, forms, homework, cards and shopping lists.

How Ballpoint Pens Write

Ballpoint pens write with a steady, even line and need very little pressure. The ink is thicker than in gel or fountain pens, so it sits on the page and dries fast. This makes it less likely to smudge when you write quickly, and left-handed writers often find that helpful.

The thick ink also lasts well. A ballpoint pen can write for a long time before it runs dry, which is why this type is the usual choice for desks, bags and kitchen drawers.

Ways to Use Ballpoint Pens

Ballpoint pens work on most plain paper, from notepads to printed forms. Here are some everyday uses:

  • Writing shopping lists and meal plans
  • Copying recipes into a notebook
  • Filling in forms, cheques and cards
  • Taking notes at school, college or work
  • Keeping a pen by the phone or in the car

Ballpoint Pens for Home, School and Office

Ballpoint pens in a multipack are handy when pens often go missing. You can keep one in the kitchen, one by the front door and a few in bags and desks. Having spares to hand means you always have something to write with.

Ballpoint Pens FAQ

What is the difference between ballpoint and gel pens?

Ballpoint pens use thick, oil-based ink that dries quickly, while gel pens use a water-based gel ink. Gel ink usually feels smoother and looks bolder on the page, but it can take longer to dry.

Do ballpoint pens smudge?

Ballpoint pens smudge less than most other pen types because the ink dries fast. Very glossy paper can still slow drying, so give the ink a moment on shiny surfaces.

Add ballpoint pens to your basket so there is always one close by for the next list, form or note.

Disclaimer

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods. Nothing in this notice is intended to exclude, restrict or limit any statutory rights you may have under applicable UK consumer law.
