Fineliner Staedtler Pigment Liner 308

The Staedtler Pigment Liner 308 is a fine black fineliner designed for precise writing, technical drawing and detailed sketching. It offers a steady, consistent ink flow and a fast-drying pigment ink that resists smudging on most papers. The pen's fine point supports accurate lines and controlled strokes, making it suitable for tasks requiring clarity and permanence.

Advantages

The fineliner provides a constant, even line with minimal pressure variation and quick-drying pigment ink that is water-resistant once dry. Its fine tip enables high-detail work while the barrel is lightweight and easy to handle for extended use. Available in black and grey, the instrument supports clear contrast on white and coloured papers and performs well in ink-intensive techniques such as cross-hatching and precise annotation.

How to use

Remove the cap and hold the pen at a comfortable angle to the paper, applying light, even pressure to produce uniform fine lines. Allow the ink a moment to dry before touching or layering to prevent smudging. Use on paper types suited for pigment ink; for technical drawing, use a ruler or templates as needed to guide linear work. Replace the cap after use to prevent the tip from drying out.

Recommendations

Use the Pigment Liner 308 for precise, archival-quality lines: pair it with smooth, heavier-weight paper for best results, keep the cap on when not in use, and store horizontally to maintain consistent ink flow.
