I have a Bamboo CTL-470 which has been through a lot - it's survived well up until this point but the pen tip is beginning to show signs of wear and I really can't afford a new pen. I was looking online to see if I could find replacement nibs but as far as I could see there weren't any specifically for the CTL-470 pen and I don't see any way to remove the old tip.

Basically, is the tip on the CTL-470 pen replaceable and if so, where can I buy replacement nibs that definitely work?

Thank you.

I don't know about the CTL-470, but my CTH-480 came with 3 replacement nibs hidden under the 'flap' at the bottom of the tablet.
(Well, any CTH-480 comes with those. I don't know if the CTL-470 does though. Look around for it, I guess.)

Anyhow, the nib on the CTL-470 is without a doubt replacable.
Have a look at these:
https://store.wacom.com/us/en/product/ACK20101W/
https://store.wacom.com/us/en/product/ACK20004/
https://store.wacom.com/us/en/product/ACK20004/
They should all work with the CTL-470, though the last 2 don't state it.

Otherwise try contacting the Wacom support and ask them instead? :p

Thank you, I'll have a look for my tablet box (no idea where it is!) and if there aren't any replacement nibs in it I'll buy a set of those. Thanks for your help. :)

If I'm not wrong, your tablet should have some replacement nibs. Check it.

And well, I believe that you can't get them alone, you need to buy another Wacom pen, like this one.

Actually, nevermind, the ones that VeilStar linked should work perfectly. I don't know why I didn't see them lol.

I found the box and sure enough there were 3 replacement nibs inside. Thank you for your help! 8-)
