Replace the pen nib

1. Use the nib removal tool to remove your pen nib. There is a small hole in the pen stand, case, pen end, or pen holder depending on what was included with your device.





2. Get a replacement nib and slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen.

   

3. Push the nib in slowly and firmly until it stops.

Where to find the nib removal tool

For some devices, the nib removal tool is a metal ring included with your device.

For other devices, you will need to use the nib removal hole to remove your pen nib. The nib removal hole can be found in a variety of places, depending on your device. See the examples below.

On the bottom of your pen stand:

Pen stands vary depending on the pen tablet or pen display that you purchased.

On the removable pen holder attached to the side of your device:

Pen holders vary depending on the pen tablet or pen display that you purchased.

Underneath one of the built-in stand legs:

Built-in stand legs vary depending on the pen tablet or pen display that you purchased.

Where to find replacement nibs

The extra nibs are stored in different places for different devices. First, look in the box that your device was packaged in. If you do not see the nibs there, try these places:

• If your device included a pen case, check there.
• If your device has a removable compartment cover on the back, slide it open.
• If your device included a pen stand, unscrew the pen stand.
Tip for the Pro Pen 2 stand: To screw the stand back together, line up the dots on the bottom of the stand and the recess. Then, gently guide the bottom of the stand to the right until you feel it click into place.
• If your device includes a pen holder attachment, check there.
• If your device has built-in stand legs, the replacement nibs may be located underneath one of the legs.

If you need more nibs, you can purchase them from the Wacom Store.
