Jetstream in a Parker Refill - Meet the SXR-600-07

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- I finally picked up one of the highly awaited Parker G2 style Jetstream refills, the SXR-600-07 ( amzn.to/2xxHpmu ). People have being waiting for this one for a long time, especially EDC people who use machined pens that often take a Parker style refill. Yes, this means a Jetstream refill in your Rotring 600 ( amzn.to/2NwEwfG ), Parker Jotter ( amzn.to/2xwwB8g ), etc.
More details: unsharpen.com/...
It's sold in a 0.5mm and 0.7mm (SXR-600-05 and SXR-600-07) and are only available in Japan for now. To be fair, they have been available for a few months but I didnt't want to pay the shipping so I held off.
If you can't find them on your local Amazon (I can't) then you can try Rakuten or Ebay. I bought mine from Ebay.

The SXR-600 is one of those rare refills that made me think "WOW! That was totally worth the $8-10!" - It made a number of my Parker-style refill pens "usable" again. FYI--the standard Jetstream refill, without modification, will fit in:
- All of my Zebra Sarasa bodies, including the grand
- All of my Energel bodies, including the Alloy
- All Uniball Signo (207/307) and Paper Made Inkjoy gel bodies
Also, I use a very slightly trimmed Jetstream refill in both my Karas Pen Co Ink and Retrakt pens. I haven't tried it in the Render K but I have to assume it'll work there as well.
Since you have some good idea about these, how do they last compared to a standard refill? Are these like a gel pen that you finish quite quickly or it's oil based ink like in a Parker?
@@InyasArt it's oil based ink
I just picked up a couple of these 0.7's on Ebay. I was testing out my Jetstreams I've kept in storage, and though the pens' shape and weight aren't my preference the refill performed as well as the schmidt easyflow9000.
I didn't give the jetstream much of a chance because they weren't swappable either, but after this quick test I think they have the potential to be an easyflow contender for me, which says a lot.
This is a big release.
Thanks for this review I just received my jet stream prime twist with this refill in the mail.
I think I found a new hobby
What?
It costs twice as much as the original Parker and Schmidt P900 G2 refill.
Hopefully, the ink is pigment-based like the new black and blue Jetstream pens.
These refills are about $6 in China. Actually the 600 in the model name means 600 yen, which is about 6 dollars. Uniball use this kind of naming a lot.
Found your channel after preordering a lefty Tactile Turn side click pen and wanting to see about the Jetstream refill since they picked it specifically for the lefty pen. Then turns out you’re a lefty as well so that worked out even better lol. Subbed.
ZUNIGA GUNNER I just got my standard size copper side click in the mail this week and absolutely love it. My matching bolt action should be here Monday lol.
On your website, you say this refill is offered in blue ink. Can you say where I can find it? Thanks.
It is now offered with a 0.38 mmm tip.
What is the pen in 5:39?

Hey Sal, just finally ran across a zebra f701 does this refill fit in that ?
Found the answer
Can you comment on how this SXR 600 in 0.7 compares to the EasyFlow 9000 M, as far as line thickness, darkness and drying time?
Thanks!
@@unsharpen Thank you! I've seen people say the SXR writes smaller than what the size is listed as. Has this been true for you? Does the 0.7 write smaller than what you expect from a "0.7"? Is it noticeably smaller than the EasyFlow M?
The Jetstream dries much quicker, has a bold black line, and isn't as prone to smearing as the EasyFLOW 9000 M. It isn't as prone to skipping like the EasyFLOW 9000 M is based on my experience with both refills. I actually threw out several unreturnable Schmidt EasyFLOW 9000 M refills, because of the incessant skipping and I also had to "warm-up" the tip on scratch paper or a tissue to get them to write, after setting them down for even a short amount of time. The Jetstream doesn't require "warming-up"
I just wish that the SXR-600-07 came in BLUE!
Can the cap on this refill be removed and placed in the F-701, as you detailed in a previous video?
Just got a rOtring 600 + Jetstream SXR-600-07 and I feel like I have achieved ballpoint pen nirvana. These two go together SO well.
Got my SXR600s, in 0.7 / 0.5 AND 0.38 (oh yes). They write amazingly and the 0.7 is comparable to the classic disposable pens that uniball produces. My only complaint is that they haven't yet introduced a blue colour (or any other for that matter apart from black). Other than that, it is classic JetStream and works as advertised.
FYI: the regular Jetstream refills fit alot of my machined pens that take the pilot G2 style (man, that is confusing). I have one in a tactile turn Mover right now.
Uniball is working on a blue color version. Hopefully it comes out this year. The saturation of the blue color is amazing.
That's amazing! I love Jetstream's blue color ink for the same reason! Where did you find this information, if you don't mind me asking?
@@Porygon2ning... Reading Amazon USA questions asked under this refill. It goes for 19.99 nowadays.
I would order the heck out of this amazing refill. I wonder when they will eventually produce it.
Got a few of these SXR-600-07 refills for use in a Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age ballpoint, which (naturally) shipped with a Visconti Smartouch cartridge. Both are very good, but I have long had a preference for Jetstream pens in the ballpoint world and the Jetstream cartridge performs exactly as I had expected it to. Having a ballpoint pen to go with my Visconti HSBA fountain pen that writes just like the Jetstream RT I keep on my desk at home means a lot to me, and I'm very happy with it.
Will this work in a zebra f701?
How does it write compared to uniball 207 plus
Hi Sal, most of the Jetstream refill I have will be unusable after only one page of note in my notebook. It won't let out anymore ink although the refill itself is new and still have a lot of ink in it. Does this problem occur to you? Especially on this product?
I really love Jetstream though. But this problem always occur and I feel it will be very pricey for me to keep buying unusable refills
Nice video. Now I have another good alternative to the inconsistent Parker refills. Also I’m a little surprised that my Rotrings take the G2.
How’d I miss that?
I am drooling at the Jetstream refill in that rOtring 600 🤤
These are pretty pricey and I think the Schmidt Easyflow 9000 rolls smoother but the Jetstream is smooth and I think the black ink is darker than what's in the Schmidt.
I just took delivery of a pen I've liked the look and feel of, since childhood but it took me a long time to get round to looking for one for myself: a Parker 45 Flighter. So I put the Jetstream in that and I can already tell I will be using that one a lot.
Reliability of the easyflow is the main problem vs the sxr
Fellow Southpaw 😎👍
Looks nice, always look forward to see your videos.
Very expensive $10 for a refill
I still prefer Parker Quink refills as I like some traction plus with Quink I can just not press for thin line and press a little harder and get thicker line; Jetstream is good for easier writing and surely will get cheaper as time goes but I cannot get variation in line and since it is hybrid ink it will deplete much quicker. Works well in one of my fave pens Parker Urban ballpoint pens. (much more comfortable then Jotters)
I like the classic Parker pen. Skinny feels good in the hand. To each their own on comfort. I found the Parker gel pens are my favorite at the moment. I write very quickly and the low drag just makes it a joy on paper.
I think your video must have been the one to alert me to this refill in the first place, but like I said in your Parker Jotter XL video, they go great together with that pen.
Does it last longer than standard sxr refills?
This refill is difficult to get in India, I couldn't find it on Amazon or other sites!
Is there anyway to modify these to fit into a Parker IM rollerball pen?
I can't find the clear version of the kaweco sport pen that fits the parker style refills like you have in some of your vids. Any ideas where I can get one?
It’s called the sport gel roller: unsharpen.com/pen/kaweco-sport-roller/
May i know what are the lifespans of this refills? How much writing can you do with them before they will need replacement?
These are quite long lasting. But I don’t have a number of pages for you unfortunately
I just curious if you are ever going to do a face reveal.
SXR-600-07 is difficult to find in India (if imported over to expensive) can we use any hack so to use any other jetstream refill in my jotter
@@unsharpen any other hybrid ink refill that can be used in jotter ?
This needs to come in Blue ink and I can get 100% behind it!
Right. What’s the delay??
Is blue refill available ?
Hi, thanks for the review! Could post the name of the stainless steel pen that writes fourth in the order? Thanks!
It’s called a maxmadco
@@unsharpen Looks like these are no longer available?
Great video once again.
Ooooooh... I'm giong to have to try this out when it's more available.
Does it flow as efforlessly as an Easyflow9000?
Thank you, and I appreciate the video reviews. A couple of individuals close to me are lefties so I am always looking for a good refill to put in a Parker Jotter or a Tikky or something of that fashion : ) This refill does pique my interest, so once again, thank you.
I will also appreciate that review in one of your future videos, in order we can exactly know the differences between both of them ( the easyflow.9000 and the SXR.600.07 Jetstream refill ). Thanks ! … And I’d like to know if we can put this refill in a Ballograf Epoca too, with the changes we know we have to do for adapting the refill in this ballpoint pen.
I did see that review of yours on the Epoca's. I saved that video, which means they're on my list. Right now the rOtring Tikky serves that purpose right now, but I will buy one of those in the near future to try them out.
aren't these refills pricier than the pens?
Does this fit in a zebra f701?
No
@@unsharpen Do you know a good refill that writes like the uniball 207 plus that would fit in the zebra f701?
Can you put Parker refills in a space pen? I know the fisher refill comes with a doodad to fit in Parker style pens. But is the opposite true?
No, the Parker G2 refill is bigger than the space pen refill, so it wouldn't fit. the extra doodad bulks up the space refill a bit but it won't go the other way
Yeah boy you need something to help you write nicely. Are you teaching yourself to write left handed?
Trade all your pens in for a typewriter. Your hand Wright ink is pure trash
