    Parkette Nib

    kircher posted a topic in Repair Q&A

    Hi everybody! this is my first new topic, so be patient. I've recently bought a parkette set that looked very nice on ebay, but I realized when it arrived, that the iridium tipping is fundamentally gone. Now, I have two questions for the forum: a. what do you do in these case? I guess the answer is: nothing, there is no unexpensive way of dealing with this issue. b. the nib looks like it is gold rather than gold plated, but i could only find replacemente parkette nibs that are gold plated (and i still wonder whether it is worth the price). Do all parkettes have gold plated nibs except the deluxe ones? Suggestions welcome!

    I've refurbished three pens to very good working conditions with 2556 nibs. Recently though, while trying to correct a problem with a nib the rolled portion broke off -- I now have another nice stub. This was not unexpected because of the wear it already had. So I decided to try the 9XXX series, But I find little and conflicting information regarding the Master Series tip construction and would appreciate assistance. 1 - What did Esterbrook mean when it billed the Master Series as being "tipped with Iridium at the Ball, or wear point?" 2 - Is it just just the tip rolled under and then Iridium welded or a true round Iridium bead on the flat tip end? I would appreciate responses containing profile images - if avail - of 9XXX where the bead/ball is visible. Especially looking for images of 9461, 9555, and 9556, but others would be good for comparison. Tks in advance.......
