Wacom Intuos 3 Pen Replacement

Matching all the Wacom Pens to their respective Tablets can get confusing, especially when trying to find a replacement. A general rule is that the Pens are forwards compatible, but not backwards. And most current pens are cross compatible within their respective generation. So you can use a Grip Pen on an Intuos 4, 22HD, and a Cintiq Pro (forwards/cross compatible). However, a Pro Pen 2 can't work on an Intuos 4/5, but it can work with a Pro Cintiq and Intuos Pro (2017 models).

Usually the smaller Intuos (non pro) tablets have specific pens that cannot be used with different tablets or Cintiqs. Ive noticed this has confused some people, especially when trying to get a new Pen for an older tablet, like a Bamboo, which they don't make anymore.

Check out our breakdown below of each Wacom Pen, what they work with, and where to get them!
And alternatively, check out our list of Wacom Tablets/Cintiqs. This list shows most, if not all, of Wacom's products and each Pen they are compatible with.

NOTE:
Pens with an 'E' denote that it has an Eraser.
Whether it ends in 'K' or '0K' is irrelevant to compatibility matching.

If you don't see the Pen you need for your tablet listed here, chances are they don't manufacture that specific pen anymore. But you might have some luck on Craigslist or eBay.

I will try to keep this list updated as new Pens, Tablets, and Cintiqs are released. Let us know if you think we missed anything!
