About Nozac
Groundbreaking innovation in the world of writing instruments.
In 1931, Conklin® Pen Company introduced a revolutionary innovation that completely transformed the writing experience forever- the first pen with a piston filler system in the United States. The company released the Conklin Endura –Graph model which was equipped with a piston filling system instead of the ink sack that was used in crescent filler models. Unlike the ink-sack, the piston filling system allowed larger ink capacity and a smoother filling experience. The absence of the rubber sack in the writing instruments with a piston-filing system led to the name Nozac, which means ‘no sac’. Throughout the years Nozac models have been evolving and transforming the look of the iconic Conklin writing instruments. One of the revolutionary breakthroughs in Conklin’s design was the introduction of the Word Gauge. The Word Gauge is a transparent visor segment that displays ink deposits within the pen marked in units of 1,000 words; each mark corresponded to the amount of ink required to write 1,000 words. Nozac writing instruments were made in different sizes and offered 5,000 words to 8,000 words ink volume which applied well to varied types of users. Furthermore, several piston filling mechanism modifications were made over the years to Nozac models, such as the quick filler introduced in 1936 and the twist filler in 1935. The quick filler, also known as One Stroke Vacuum Filler was a filling system operated lengthwise and required extending the knob outward the pen and pressing on a single stroke to fill. Meanwhile, the Twist Filler is activated by turning the knob to expel the air and in the opposite direction to suck in the ink. Conklin Nozac was a major change for the writing industry as it introduced comfort and ease to the experience, allowing its users to focus on the process itself. Today Conklin continues to innovate, leading to newly introduced futuristic designs.
