Board Master Super Thick Tip
The Boardmaster Wytebord Marker is Pilot's definitive solution for pen lovers who find themselves in front of the whiteboard. The ink is brighter, wetter, and more precise than the typical markers you will find in the tray of your conference room whiteboard. Writing over your previous marks adds color and strength instead of smearing or lightening the writing underneath. The tips are made out of a firmer material to give you more control over your lines, and there are many tip sizes and shapes to choose from. These markers have reservoirs.
This Super Thick Tip marker is something you have to try for yourself to fully understand. The tip is a broad rectangle shape, and allows you to make very bold, powerful lines that are visible in even the biggest conference room. This marker is perfect to let you distinguish the most important part of your presentation, and it still allows you to make fine lines when needed by using the edge of the tip.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip?
A: The Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip is a refillable whiteboard marker designed for very bold, highly visible writing. Its extra-thick tip produces a writing width of approximately 5.0–12.0 mm, making it particularly useful for large whiteboards, lecture rooms, meeting rooms, presentations, and information boards where writing needs to remain visible from a distance. Pilot lists it under the Japanese product name “Board Master 極太.”
Q: How thick is the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip?
A: The Super Thick Tip writes approximately 5.0–12.0 mm wide. This is considerably broader than standard whiteboard marker tips, so it is better suited to headings, diagrams, large notes, and writing intended to be seen across a room.
Q: Is the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip good for classrooms and teaching?
A: Yes. The extra-wide line is especially useful when writing on a large classroom whiteboard. Reddit users frequently mention Pilot Board Master markers in teaching environments, particularly for their bold writing, easy erasing, and refillable design.
Q: Is the Board Master Super Thick Tip easy to see from a distance?
A: That is one of its main purposes. Pilot specifically positions the Super Thick Tip for large meeting rooms, large classrooms, and information boards, where a bold line is easier to see from farther away.
Q: Does the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip use refillable ink?
A: Yes. The marker uses a cartridge-based ink system, and the Super Thick Tip is compatible with the P-WMRF8 refill cartridge. This makes it possible to continue using the marker body instead of replacing the entire marker every time the ink runs out.
Q: Is the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip economical for frequent use?
A: It can be a practical choice for frequent whiteboard use because the ink cartridge can be replaced. Reddit users who use Board Master regularly often mention the refill system as one of the reasons they continue using the marker, although refill prices and availability can vary by market.
Q: Does the Board Master Super Thick Tip produce a dark, consistent line?
A: Pilot's TPF ink-control system is designed to provide stable ink delivery to the tip. Pilot states that the Board Master is designed to maintain a bold, clear line during writing rather than becoming noticeably faint partway through use.
Q: Is it suitable for presentations and meeting rooms?
A: Yes. The 5.0–12.0 mm writing width makes the Super Thick Tip particularly suitable for presentation headings, large diagrams, brainstorming sessions, schedules, and meeting-room whiteboards.
Q: What is the difference between the Super Thick Tip and regular Pilot Board Master markers?
A: The main difference is the writing width. The Super Thick Tip is designed for exceptionally bold writing at approximately 5.0–12.0 mm, while other Board Master versions offer narrower writing widths for more general whiteboard use. Pilot's lineup includes multiple tip styles and widths so users can choose according to the size of the writing surface and the distance from which the writing needs to be viewed.
Q: Is the Super Thick Tip better for headings than detailed writing?
A: Its very wide line makes it more suitable for large headings, key points, diagrams, arrows, and other high-visibility writing than for small detailed notes. If you need compact handwriting or fine lines, a narrower Board Master tip would generally be more appropriate.
Q: Does the Pilot Board Master erase easily from a whiteboard?
A: Erasability is one of the characteristics users frequently mention when discussing Pilot Board Master markers. Reddit users have described them as easy to wipe from whiteboards, while actual erasing performance can still depend on the whiteboard surface, how long the ink remains on the board, and the condition of the board.
Q: Can the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip be used on electronic whiteboards?
A: Pilot states that the Board Master is suitable not only for conventional whiteboards but also for electronic boards designed for this type of marker. Always check the surface manufacturer's recommendations before using a marker on a specific electronic or coated board.
Q: Is the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip refillable in the same way as other Board Master models?
A: Yes. The Super Thick Tip uses the Board Master cartridge system and takes the P-WMRF8 cartridge. One detail worth knowing is that Pilot does not list a replacement tip for the Super Thick version, so the refill system primarily extends the usable life of the ink supply rather than making every component replaceable.
Q: What should I consider before buying a Super Thick Tip whiteboard marker?
A: The most important consideration is writing size. If you mainly write small notes, formulas, or detailed text, the 5.0–12.0 mm line may feel too broad. If your priority is visibility across a large classroom, meeting room, presentation board, or information board, the extra-thick format is much more relevant.
Q: Is the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip a good choice for presentations?
A: It is particularly well suited to presentations where large, bold writing needs to remain readable from a distance. The extra-thick line can work well for slide-side notes, presentation boards, diagrams, headings, and audience-facing information.
Q: Where can I buy the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip?
A: Availability can vary by country because the Super Thick Tip is a Japan-market Pilot product and different regions may carry different Board Master configurations. When shopping online, it is useful to check the model name, tip size, color, and refill compatibility rather than relying only on a generic “Pilot whiteboard marker” listing.
Q: How do you source Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip products?
A: We work with a broad network of stationery suppliers and maintain an established supply chain for Japanese stationery products. Depending on the market and product, our supplier network includes partners with access to officially authorized Pilot products, helping us source Japanese-market stationery through established channels.
Q: Who is the Pilot Board Master Super Thick Tip best for?
A: It is especially suited to teachers, presenters, office teams, trainers, students working on large whiteboards, and anyone who needs bold writing that can be seen from a distance. For small handwriting or detailed note-taking, a narrower Pilot Board Master tip may be a better fit.
