We have found that the Shur/Mark pens from Triangle Biomedical Sciences are
the best pens for our lab.  We like them because they last a long time
compared to the competition.  What is neat about this product is that you
can buy replacement tips for the pens.  You know how they get blunt and
hard to write with? Just pull the felt tip out with forceps and add a new
tip.  This works when they get wet too.  The ink lasts longer because you
"prime" the pen by pressing the tip against a hard surface 3-4 times.  We
process our cassettes after writing on them and the ink remains totally
legible.

The pen product # is: H-MP-B  (12 per pack)
The tips product # is: H-MP-RT (lots in a little poly-bag)
