Straight Pressure Bars - Bar D, Bar E + Bar L

STRAIGHT 2 PIECE PRESSURE BARS FOR PARKER BUTTON FILLERS, as well as other brands.   Three sizes available. Newly manufactured. Made of stainless steel.  Bar D: Length of 3.3 inches (84 mm). Fits Duofold Senior Bar E: Length of 2.6 inches (66mm). Fits Duofold Juniors, Pastels and others.  Bar L: Length of 2.5 inches (64 mm) Fits Duofold AF + Juniors, Pastels and others. Bar N: Length of 2.91 inches (74 mm). Fits Montblanc and other European Pens. Note: The last photo below illustrates a neat trick taught to me by the late, great Frank Dubiel. It involves lengthening straight pressure bars with a piece of insulation off of a piece of 12 gage electrical wire. The top end of the pressure bar fits into the piece of insulation which then fits into a Parker button. You then have a longer pressure bar. A piece of a hollow Q-Tip handle also works if you can find one. Note (again): These pressure bars can also be shortened a small amount by removing a small amount of the bottom end, making sure there are no sharp edges on it after you cut it. A file works well here. Also make sure you don't take so much off that it no longer flexes on the bottom end.
