After owning a Pilot Metopolitan for a couple of years, I had dropped it and it landed nib first bending it out of place. Sadly, Pilot themselves don't sell replacement nibs and parts, so I turned to ebay & bought this product. The installation was really easy (you just pull the feed and the nib together and it pops out) and after using it for a few months, I'm really happy with the quality of the product. It writes finer than a Pilot Medium Nib, it's very smooth and does a good job. Highly recommended and a good replacement for Pilot MR/Metro owners with a Nib.

Used to replace a bad nib on my Prera fountain pen. This nib worked great. It is not as fine as the original (which was too fine for me). It is more like a fine to medium. Works great and with four at this price, a good deal.

I bought this nib as a budget replacement for a damaged Pilot M 213 original. It runs smoothly across the paper and the line it makes is a bit finer compared to M size Pilot nib (one might say it's barely noticeable). I think it needs some running in though - it's been only 3 days since I've been using it.

I've installed one of the nibs in my pilot metropolitan and it works just fine - the pen that was previously useless I can now enjoy again. Haven't installed the other 2, so I can't speak to consistency. They did not have a little notch at the base of the nib but that did not affect the fit. It would have been nice to have a little more padding in the box during shipping but they seem to have made it ok. Shipping took about 2 weeks.

These fit my Metro Pilot pens perfectly and work nearly, if not just as well, as the original pilot nibs. Excellent bargain & quality!
