Fountain Pen Cleaning Tool Dental Pick

Remove dried ink from fountain pen nibs and feed channels. This sharp Indigo™ blocked orifice cleaning tool clears clogs in vintage and modern pens without damaging delicate components.

Fountain pen enthusiasts and collectors understand that proper maintenance extends pen life and ensures smooth writing, but dried ink in nibs and feed channels creates skipping, hard starts, and inconsistent ink flow. Whether using vintage piston-fillers, modern cartridge pens, or eyedropper systems, ink residue accumulates in the tiny capillary channels of feeds, behind nibs, and in breather holes. Standard cleaning methods, flushing with water, bulb syringes, or overnight soaking, don't always remove stubborn deposits, especially iron gall inks, pigmented formulations, or inks that have dried for months in neglected pens. Improvised cleaning with toothpicks or wire risks scratching precious metal nibs or breaking delicate ebonite feeds.

This professional Indigo™ sharp nozzle cleaning dental pick features precision-ground curved tips specifically useful for fountain pen maintenance. The fine points navigate the narrow feed channels (typically 0.3mm to 0.8mm wide), dislodging dried ink from capillary slots, breather holes, and the spaces behind tines without damaging gold, steel, or iridium-tipped nibs. The curved design allows careful cleaning of vintage celluloid, hard rubber, and modern plastic feeds where straight tools cannot reach.

Use these super sharp dentist tools for making very fine holes in materials or for sculpting tiny features into polymer clay & other materials, only $4.95.
