The resin barrel of the 163 Rollerball and the 144 Fountain Pen has a terrible knack for cracking where it meets the pen grip, even if you make sure not to overtighten it!

The issue is that Montblanc not only expects an arm and a leg to “repair” it, but also asks that you give them your pen for up to 8 weeks.

Considering it takes five seconds to replace the barrel, we consider this a much better option.
Direct, immediate replacement for your broken or damaged pen barrel!
Perfect for the Montblanc 163 Rollerball and the Montblanc 144 Fountain Pen.
Replace the barrel in five seconds, instead of waiting up to 8 weeks for Montblanc to repair it!
Barrel is approximately 74mm long by 11mm wide (dimensions in images).
