Surprise! I hadn't realised until now that pens in the Pilot Custom line have threaded collars screwed into their gripping sections.© A Smug Dill

Hi all, im not sure what model it is exactly. Anyone can help me out, and tell me where i can get a collar replacement? here are some images of the pen, when needed: https://www.ebay.at/itm/F%C3%BCller-Pelikan-Kolbenf%C3%BCller-400-Schildpatt-Braun-585-Gold-Antik-Rarit%C3%A4t-Ur-Alt/162963880871?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

Hello, I'm seeing if anyone has tackled this problem. As I was trying to wrestle a Sheaffer Triumph nib off a vac filler, the feed snapped. The nib and the rest of it is out, but there's a length of the feed still stuck in the collar. I've tried to soak it and twist it out (It'd be nice to preserve the collar for a spare, just in case) but it's not really budging. I do have a spare nib/feed/collar combo from a past botched vac fill project, and am hoping to at least get the collar out, so I can replace the Triumph nib unit and get this pen working. Am planning to drill into the feed, see if it holds, and then twist out the collar. If not, I will possibly just drill out the feed and then use a larger drill bit to then twist out the emptied collar. Thoughts?

While removing the nib and feed from my vac-fill Sheaffer Lady Tuckaway I snapped the feed in half. Upon further inspection I noticed the feed was significantly undersized and there was a plastic collar at the bottom of the feed. As you can see in the photos the section diameter was around 7 mm. My question is 1) Is this collar an original feature and 2) When finding a replacement feed should I get one around 7mm so that if fits the section or 2mm undersized and use the plastic collar. Thanks for any help.

Acquired a vintage Pelikan 400 recently that some "silly person" (not me) decided to pull the nib outta (leaving just the feed), and that some other "silly person" (yeah, me) decided to try unscrewing ... and now all i really have is a spare feed in one hand and a pen with the nib-collar stuck down inside it in the other. (And a cap, over there on the floor somewhere.) So, the question is, naturally: Should i attempt to chisel the collar free and hope my other nib-unit will still fit (section's a little misshapen from that gold-mining-expedition trauma), or ... dig up a loose nib and try to jam everything back into the stuck collar? (Or should i just drill a hold thru the middle and hang it on the bathroom wall?...) (And then buy a different pen.) Advice appreciated, and thanks in advance.
