After fountain pen, ball-point pen appeared on the stage of history.

After China’s reform and opening-up, the pen manufacturing industry suddenly exploded. Ballpoint pens replaced their more expensive counterparts and became a common writing tool for many Chinese.

Now, China is the world’s largest manufacturer of ballpoint pens producing over 40 billion of them per year.

Producing one of these ballpoint pen tips requires precise measurements down to one thousandth of a millimeter, and a specific type of high quality stainless steel.

At the beginning of 2017, China’s Taiyuan Iron and Steel Group successfully developed the technology to produce the metal required. This marked an important step in the upgrading of Chinese industry. Finally, the country could produce it own pen tips.

Taiyuan Iron and Steel (Group) Co plans to mass-produce ballpoint pen tips and replace imports in two years.

The group has spent five years on research and development to acquire the technology, ending a long-term Chinese reliance on imported pen tips.

Without this technology, China’s pen manufacturers, which produce 38 billion ballpoint pens per year, have had to purchase the crucial component from overseas markets, costing the industry $17.3 million a year, according to the China National Light Industry Council.

For the nation’s army and navy, TISCO’s materials proved essential in the making of the latest series of destroyers, frigates and minesweepers. It is the only qualified Chinese supplier of low-magnetic steel for warships.

China successfully launched its first cargo spacecraft Tianzhou-1 on April 20 using the Long March-7 Y2 rocket as a carrier with various components made using its products. TISCO had played a key role in the building of the Long March-7 Y1 rocket, the predecessor to the Y2 and an important milestone in Chinese rocket science history.
