Hi-Tec-C is Pilot's most iconic pen! These incredibly versatile gel pens are both simple and functional. Its clear body serves as an indicator for the remaining ink. The tip on every Hi-Tec-C pen is designed to provide minimal drag and precise, effortless ink flow. The ink has smear-proof, acid-free, archival safe, and bio-polymer ink which makes this pen perfect for note taking! Hi-Tec-C is one of the most popular pens among students in Asia and has quickly become a stationery favorite all over the world.

This pen dates all the way back to 1994. In the 80’s Pilot came out with Hi-tecpoint, a rollerball pen series. The pens in this series featured a special mechanism that locked a tiny metal rollerball securely at the top of its needlepoint tip. Hi-Tec-C was inspired by the G Series gel pen. This pen was likely rival to Signo and combined the tip of Hi-Tecpoint with the G Series gel pen to create the much-loved Hi-Tec-C gel pen.
