on saleGoulet Bulb Syringe 2oz

The bulb syringe is an excellent tool. But beware that stagnant normal faucet water has algae in it, and if it stands in the bulb for days, in warm conditions it will form mats of algae within, which can spurt out into your fountain pen. To avoid this, clean your bulb syringe carefully after each use, and keep it dry when not used. I had an unpleasant surprise testing it after letting water remain in it all summer, and it would have destroyed my feed in my fountain pen. Luckily I noticed it. Do not ever drink water from a device like a bulb syringe, it is likely contaminated with bacteria and algae.

Helpful tool for sure but can probably buy it elsewhere for less…I purchased it for here because it was convenient.

Worked well. Wish I'd had this for the last 30 years. Would have made nib cleaning much easier.

I'm so glad I ordered this when I first ordered some pens and inks and didn't wait around! It is super easy (and fun) to use and saves so much time! I use it in so many different pen brands! Also nice to squirt! & squish water into caps and barrels for a nice cleaning. I was surprised how much ink was in some of the caps and I never would have noticed until I used this bulb thing and cleaned out the caps too. It's awesome.

Quite literally a game changer for cleaning your cartridge/converter pens. However, it's not really helpful for piston fillers unless you have a TWSBI where you can remove the piston mechanism.
