# ballpoint-pen icon Ballpoint pen. Gentleface icon, drawn on the 16 px pixel grid. Free, MIT licensed. Page: https://gentleface.com/icons/ballpoint-pen - Category: Business & office - Use it for: ballpoint pen, ballpen, stationery pen - Tags: ballpoint-pen, ballpen, pen, biro, click-pen, stationery, office, writing - Component name: BallpointPenIcon - Added: 2026-11-12 ## Files Each icon is drawn on the 16 px grid, and most also on the 20 and 24 px grids (at 24 in three weights: light 1 px, regular 1.5 px, bold 2 px). Show the drawing made for your size, or an exact multiple of it, on whole pixels: 16 for 16 and 32 px, 20 for 20 and 40, 24 for 24 and 48. A size in between or a fractional position blurs it. The code on each icon page is the 16 px drawing, an SVG with fill="currentColor"; the icon page's downloads follow its Grid switch, and npm has the 20 and 24 px drawings too. - line-round: https://gentleface.com/svg/line-round/16/ballpoint-pen.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/line-round/16/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-round/32/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-round/48/ballpoint-pen.png - line-soft: https://gentleface.com/svg/line-soft/16/ballpoint-pen.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/line-soft/16/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-soft/32/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-soft/48/ballpoint-pen.png - line-sharp: https://gentleface.com/svg/line-sharp/16/ballpoint-pen.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/line-sharp/16/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-sharp/32/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/line-sharp/48/ballpoint-pen.png - solid-round: https://gentleface.com/svg/solid-round/16/ballpoint-pen.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/solid-round/16/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-round/32/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-round/48/ballpoint-pen.png - solid-soft: https://gentleface.com/svg/solid-soft/16/ballpoint-pen.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/solid-soft/16/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-soft/32/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-soft/48/ballpoint-pen.png - solid-sharp: https://gentleface.com/svg/solid-sharp/16/ballpoint-pen.svg · PNG https://gentleface.com/png/solid-sharp/16/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-sharp/32/ballpoint-pen.png · https://gentleface.com/png/solid-sharp/48/ballpoint-pen.png The SVG of every style: https://gentleface.com/icons/ballpoint-pen.json (`svg`). ## Code (line-round) The snippets are decorative (aria-hidden).
